the statute of limitations for assessing local income taxes is typically three years from the date the return was filed or the due date of the return, whichever is later.
They are saying I made 55k in 2018. I did not. I worked at Panera bread part time. I did not make 55k. I need advice on this situation.

It sounds like there's more confusion than legal issues here. Call the tax department and get an explanation of what's going on. Go to the source and get good information that your rights are being impinged before contacting an expensive attorney for help

It sounds like you may want to contact a real estate attorney to draft a contract for an assignment of the lease to this partner. It is not clear if this will be sufficient to bind whoever succeeds you to owning the property after your eventual demise.
They think I am running a business that has been defunct for 9 years. I produced evidence that this was not the case and proof I made them aware of this years ago.

Keep om writing to the authorities not less often then every three weeks. Explain everything, in detail. Do not give up. Eventually you will indeed get their attention and they will respond in a correct positive manner. Don't give up!

Hi. You might want to reword your question. It does not quite make sense when you say the IRS is withholding a tax return. Are you saying you requested a tax return transcript and they haven't provided it? Are you asking how long it is taking them to process a tax return? Are you asking how... View More

US birth certificate. Isn't this city overreach and illegal to use taxpayer money on children (or the children of parents who are here illegally) who are not born in this country and do not speak English (putting other children behind) and do not have legal status?

Would you rather they don’t have a safe place to go and get an education? They’re here and I’d you force desperate people out into the streets or will certainly cause more desperation and crime.
They put a offset on my federal taxes and Wasnt aware no action, filed bankruptcy and it should of been discharged
I have unfiled city taxes for 14,15 ,16 and 17 for which they took me to court in 2019.

Indefinitely. You did not file your tax returns. The statute of limitations for collections does not apply when a taxpayer does not file the tax return. You need to become compliant by filing the tax returns and then set up a payment plan after they calculate penalties and interest.
