Q: I live in Wisconsin. I owe taxes for the year 2012, and it has been well over 10 years; why are they still pursuing me?
I have unpaid taxes from the years 2012 to 2016, which I accumulated due to my gambling at the casino. I understand that my federal tax issues with the IRS should be resolved by 2026. However, I am struggling to obtain clear information regarding state taxes in Wisconsin. I have been told that Wisconsin does not have any statutes of limitation for tax matters, but I suspect this may not be entirely accurate. Could you please provide details on Wisconsin's statute of limitations? Additionally, when can I anticipate resolving my outstanding tax obligations?
