Statute of Limitations for Excise Taxes?


Silver Post Medal for All Time! 277 Posts

Does anyone have an idea of the statute of limitations the department of revenue has on collecting excise taxes, or do the even have a limit on how far back they can go? I am being hit with excise taxes from 2003 (4 years ago) for purchasing cigarettes online.

As far as I know there is no time limit on collecting taxes of any kind. I work at the credit bureau and I know that unpaid taxes stay on your credit report FOREVER until you pay them- they dont come off in seven years like other stuff. I heard of someone getting a bill for $3000.00 YEARS (like 6 or 7) after buying cigs online. It's not worth the savings to but them this way. Good luck!

Please see tax.illinois.gov/.../collection.htm. For use taxes, it says 6 years, with certain big exceptions. Good luck.

Can you make an appt. with IRS agent and:
1. try to get amount reduced you owe
2. "I didn't know" or I would have not purchased them on the internet. There are no warnings about taxes after the fact.

3. talk to your congress person
