Way Past Due
» From: Fremont, CA
Dear TaxMama:
I owe federal and state tax on $100,000 that I took out of my
state teachers retirement fund 10 years ago. I moved out of the
USA to teach in Asia. I have not repaid any taxes.
Is there a statue of limitations on this, since it has been 10 years?
Jerry
Dear Jerry,
If you filed the tax return 10 years ago,
perhaps you're nearly out of statute.
I don't know if leaving the country freezes the statute.
Call IRS and see what they show as the status on your account.
If you didn't file your tax return, forget it. The statutes
haven't even begun to run.
Good luck.
Best wishes,
Eva Rosenberg
Your TaxMama
