Probably no. Each state has it's own debt collection statutes of limitations.

Passing the collection date does not mean you are not owing, and your credit

score will reflect that you defaulted. If you owe fines, child support, etc. that

won't help get out of those.

Refuse to be contacted further even if your debt is "uncollectible", and do not

pay anything back or arrange for making payments which they will try coaxing

you into doing, using threats to bring legal action to scare you. As long as

you are beyond the expiration date you have nothing to worry about, except

keeping them off your phone and sending threatening looking, or disguised

past-due debt notices. Notify your state to be on its "no calls" list.

What is the statute of limitations on state income tax or federal income tax or sales tax?

First, there are many different SOLs, mainly ones for auditing the info, assesment of the tax and collection of the tax...as you see a progression that added together can be a long time.Many States simply have none at all for many taxes...and may collect it at any time they can.Depending on certain things, generally, the audit SOL is normally 3 or 4 years. However, a substantial underpayment, normally more than 25%, can extend that too. And how the days are counted can be a bit strange..but more importantly, that they can be "tolled" (stopped), by many things, most noteably from when the Dept sends a notice, received or not, until you respond for example. filing bankruotcy, leaving the country, many other things toll the SOL. So ignoring them and waiting for the time to run doesn't work.Sales tax can be even a bit different, because those are trust funds that you hold for the State...the audit periods are normally more like 2 years to notify of an audit to see the proper things were taxed. But if it is a matter of your not payng over what you collected, then it is a criminal matter and a whole other set of rules may be invoked.Importantly for many is to understand the SOL only starts to run when a return is filed. If you don't file, you are perpetually open and will never time out.So ignoring them or avoiding them and notices or whatever, and waiting for the time to run doesn't work. Uh...it's been thought of by many before, over many years...do ya really think that's all there is to not paying?what is the statute of limitations on Virginia state taxes?


You recently received a summons for payment of credit card debt at your parents address in New Jersey but you have lived in Nevada for the past 15 years What are your options?

Is this a collection letter or a court summons? Summons -a legal document issued by a court, addressed to a defentant in a legal proceeding. This will usually announce that the person to whom it is directed that a legal proceeding has been started, a file has been started and will announce a date by which the defendant[s] must appear in court or respond in writing to the court or opposing part[ies]. For a collection letter- Often a legitimate debt collector or someone trying to put on over on the consumer will demand payment on a bill that the consumer is not even aware exists' [either by choice or by accident]. Besides ignoring the phone calls [because the statute of limitations has most likely run out],pull your credit report to see if this debt is reporting as 'past due', 'in collections' [etc]. www.annualcreditreport.com If this debt is not being reported, you can almost assume that the account is either not yours [they may be calling all 'Mary A. Smith's' in a 6 state area] or some junk collection agency bought this account and is trying to collect on an old debt. You can take the time to contact the agency to request a 'debt validation'. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act requires that debt collector issue proof of/for this debt. www.credit.about.com/cs/consumerwisdom/a/123103.htm


What is the time established for filing law suits?

Statutes of limitation differ not only from state to state, but also with regard to the type of lawsuit involved. In some states the statutes of limitations for medical malpractice, wrongful death cases, or lawsuits against governmental agencies may be shorter than for other types of personal injury cases,well perhaps not suits involving the federal government, but anyway. In general, however, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is from one to three years. For other types of actions, such as enforcing a judgment, the statute of limitations may be up to 20 years or more! There are some exceptions to the rule, however. Also, the date upon which the time period begins to "run" (and the clock starts to tick) may vary depending on whether you discovered the injury/harm some time after it actually occurred. An experienced lawyer can help you with the details. If you are in the southern part of the State of New Jersey I have an absolutely incredible lawyer for you to contact; Micheal J. Pimpinelli. He is in Woodbury NJ and his number is listed. I dont have it in front of me and well my phone is in the other room and Im in bed .....but its a 5 second look up. Great guy, great personality and he gets results! And no I do not get anything out of it....Actual free advice from me to you!

Is your tax federal government wiped out after ten years?

In general, an IRS debt has a statute of limitations of 10 years. If the government cannot collect the debt within ten years, they write it off and it is no longer a valid debt. There are several things that can "toll" the statute of limitations, or temporarily stop it from running. These can include, but are not limited to,: 1. Filing an Offer in Compromise -- the statute of limitations does not run for the entire time that an Offer in Compromise is under review. 2. Filing a lawsuit against the IRS -- the statute of limitations does not run for the entire time litigation against the IRS is pending. 3. Filing for bankruptcy -- the statute of limitations does not run while you are under the protection of the bankruptcy courts, and it does not begin running again until six months after the bankruptcy is discharged or dismissed. 4. Filing a Collection Due Process (CDP) Appeal: a CDP Appeal is an administrative appeal that can be filed to protest proposed levies and seizures of property. The statute of limitations does not run while this Appeal is pending. 5. Military members serving in combat zones: the statute of limitations does not run if you are a member of the military serving in a combat zone. There are other small things that stop the statute of limitations from running as well. As a general rule, whenever the IRS is legally prohibited from attempting to collect the debt the statute of limitations is not running. Because many people will take one or more of these actions throughout the course of a ten year period, in practice the IRS usually ends up having 11-12 years to collect a debt, but that depends on each individual situation. 10 years is the baseline that everyone starts with.

If you have been paying on a debt for 10 years or more and the debt has not been paid by 10 years is the debt covered by the statute of limitations?

Statute of limitations are established by state law. Thus, your answer depends on the specific state law governing this account.Certain states' laws have provisions which allow SOL to be tolled (stopped) in conjunction with certain circumstances, or re-set after a payment or an agreement to pay.The best guess answer to your question is maybe not. But you should find out which state's law governs this account. That law will provide your specific answer.NoBecause you acknowledge the debt and have been paying on it, the statute of limitations does not begin to run until after the most recent payments is made. If you stopped paying now, it would take however many years it takes for your state's statute of limitations to run before it would be considered off the books. And if the contract specifies a time for re-payment (say 30 years on a mortgage) the statute of limitations will not begin until the end of the contracted period.
