ODT has 7 years from the date of assessment to file a suit against the taxpayer. Once the judgment is rendered then the ODT/OAG has 15 years to collect. If no tax return was ever filed, then there is no statute of limitation to collect.

Send it where? To their account in prison? A detailed review of the documents and surrounding facts would be needed in order to discuss your options, and opine on the best course of action.
Best of luck.
We were told cashing check would be easier if house was in our name when sold. However would there be any tax issues if house is in our name when sold as apposed to being in the trusts name.

The answer is going to depend on the terms of the Trust. The same holds true for the tax consequences. I recommend speaking with an attorney, either via Zoom or in person, to go through things. A detailed analysis of the Trust will be needed to determine what actions would be most beneficial.... View More

If you are the custodial parent, you do. If you and your ex have shared parenting, the court may divide the stimulus between you.
The sale of the property will not satisfy the tax lien. Other than paying the tax lien, how can I dispose of the property?

If the taxes exceed the fair market value, then if the taxes are not paid, eventually the county will send the property to tax foreclosure sale. If you can't find a buyer willing to pay the tax, then you could try auctioning it.
The State of Ohio holds a Tax Lien against real estate that I own jointly with my spouse. The tax debt is solely mine and does not involve my spouse. My spouse would like to sell the real estate and get their share of the proceeds. My share of the proceeds will not be sufficient to pay off the... View More

The state will not intervene to stop the sale, but unless all liens and mortgages can be paid at closing, then the buyer will not close the sale. You would have to pay money at closing to make up any deficit, for there to be sufficient funds to pay off the lien. Otherwise, a buyer will not close.

No. There is no inheritance tax in Ohio, but other states there may be. Ohio has an estate tax which the estate pays on the value of the gross estate. Of course, once you receive your inheritance if there is growth on the asset, then you pay income tax on that growth only.

I think I did file and paid, but I shred all documents after 10 years and no longer have any proof.

The non filing of city taxes does not have a statute of limitations. I would need to look a the city of Dayton ordinances to be sure. I would recommend looking to your bank for proof of payment from that period of time if you do not have copies of your paper filings.

I have the condo deed my name and will sign over after buyout but concerned large personal check may lead to tax issue? We lived there for 3+ years. Should I insist that when he goes to closing the bank give a check or does it matter as far as taxes go? Should be about 85k

The manner in which paid does not affect whether any tax might be due. Contact your tax professional to determine if you will have any tax due on the transaction.
I need help with our property taxes and don't know where to start.

Property tax issues are best handled by a real estate attorney. While they are taxes a person that handles real estate will be needed to address property tax questions
In Ohio. I just received a wage garnishment from the court (which I was unaware of since it was back in 2017). Can I still try to make a payment with the creditor or will I have to go to court for my hearing to ask? The creditor was Attorney general. I don't have the money to pay this... View More

If you want to work it out with the Attorney General's representative, you better start discussing it with them. If you wait until court, they will probably just go for the garnishment and get it.
I didn't know I had to report zero sales on a transient vendors license and received notice of estimated taxes due. I called multiple times and was told multiple times it was fixed. Apparently a tax lien was put in place, but around the same time it finally got fixed and I received... View More

There are companies that send people out to town halls to compile lists of people with liens and then sell them to companies that offer to help you with your lien. The lists are usually compiled a month or two before they are sold. You are likely receiving letters from one of these companies.... View More

The only intercepts will be for child support. No offset for past due taxes. It is an advance of a 2020 tax credit and it'll be calculated on the 2020 return. If you got too much good for you you don't have to pay it back of offset your 2020 taxes. If you didn't receive enough... View More
Per our divorce order he is able to claim 3 kids for taxes. What happens to the kids stimulus checks? They solely live with me and I provide all support.
answered on Apr 14, 2020
This is such a new issue that the Courts are trying to figure this issue out right now. It really depends if he is behind on child support. If he claimed the 3 kids this year he may get the money. If I were you I would file a motion with the Court requesting allocation of the stimulus money if he... View More
In 2020, I applied for the Homestead Reduction to my property taxes based on 2019 value of my home. I am 67 and earned only Social Security benefits in 2019. My County auditor says they go back to 2018 income. This makes no sense to me. Is it correct? I understand that I pay 2019 taxes in... View More
answered on Mar 5, 2020
Homestead law is a property law issue, not an income tax issue. The property laws of Ohio control. You need the opinion of an Ohio Lawyer.
I also heard her lawyer say this would be my year and my ex wife claimed our child anyway. I thought claiming in odd number years for tax purposes would mean that I claim 2019 being it’s an odd number year. If that’s the case what do I do? I don’t want to get her in trouble and I have tried... View More
