First, there are many different SOLs, mainly ones for auditing the info, assesment of the tax and collection of the tax...as you see a progression that added together can be a long time.

Many States simply have none at all for many taxes...and may collect it at any time they can.

Depending on certain things, generally, the audit SOL is normally 3 or 4 years. However, a substantial underpayment, normally more than 25%, can extend that too. And how the days are counted can be a bit strange..but more importantly, that they can be "tolled" (stopped), by many things, most noteably from when the Dept sends a notice, received or not, until you respond for example. filing bankruotcy, leaving the country, many other things toll the SOL. So ignoring them and waiting for the time to run doesn't work.

Sales tax can be even a bit different, because those are trust funds that you hold for the State...the audit periods are normally more like 2 years to notify of an audit to see the proper things were taxed. But if it is a matter of your not payng over what you collected, then it is a criminal matter and a whole other set of rules may be invoked.

Importantly for many is to understand the SOL only starts to run when a return is filed. If you don't file, you are perpetually open and will never time out.

So ignoring them or avoiding them and notices or whatever, and waiting for the time to run doesn't work. Uh...it's been thought of by many before, over many years...do ya really think that's all there is to not paying?

Is sporadic income included in determining alimony?

Yes. If you have a source of income that is continuing, but erratic, (e.g.: sales commissions, etc) what you earn over a period of a year is averaged and that amount is added to your stable income when calculating your support obligation.


What Is No Income Tax Law?

One thing some people may have heard of is "no income tax law." This phrase can actually refer to a few different kinds of law. First, it refers to the law of states that do not tax the income of their citizens. Secondly, it can also refer to federal laws that allow certain individuals to avoid paying federal income taxes. Most states in the US charge a state income tax. This is done to help fund services provided by state governments to their citizens. However, not every state actually has a state income tax. Several don't. These states include Florida, Alaska, South Dakota, Nevada, Texas, Wyoming and Washington. However, there are a few exceptions in these states. Sometimes corporations that reside in these states are still forced to pay state income taxes. This is the case in Florida. A few additional states only charge state income taxes on certain kinds of income. In Tennessee and New Hampshire, the state government only charges income taxes on income produced from either dividends or interest. However, states that have no state income tax make up the revenue it other ways. Sometimes this is done through higher sales taxes. If the cost of living is high enough in a state, a high sales tax can more than make up for not having a state income tax. In other states without a state income tax, this lost revenue may be made up for with high property taxes. This is why a person should be educated on all taxes before moving to a new state. In other cases, "no income tax law" may refer to laws that allow certain individuals to avoid paying federal income taxes. One of the largest groups of these people are those with no income or income so low that no income taxes are applied. However, there are also cases in which individuals with significant levels of income can also avoid paying income taxes. This is due to specific deductions, tax credits and "loop holes" that exist within the tax code that can be taken advantage of. One such example is the earned income tax credit. When this tax credit was introduced into the tax code, it resulted in an extra six percent of income tax filers not having to pay any income taxes at all. The percentage of people who file that don't have to pay income taxes also increased significantly when a child tax credit was introduced under the Bush administration.

Statute of limitations on Indiana unpaid sales tax?

The statute of limitations for taxes in Indiana is 3 years after the tax was due or after the return was filed, whichever is later. So for instance if you have a tax return due April 15, 2005 and the return is filed February 1, 2005 the statue of limitations is April 15, 2008. If the return was filed on June 15, 2005 with the same due date, the statue of limitations would run out on June 15, 2008.

Can you deduct the amount you pay your tax account?

I am not sure what you mean by this or what kind of tax account you may be referring to.On your federal income tax return, you may deduct payments of various types of state and local taxes that are imposed on you within limitations. These include real estate, state and local income taxes, and sales taxes (but not both sales taxes and income taxes). You may not deduct federal incomes taxes. You may not deduct interest or penalties.A few states let you deduct federal income taxes on your state return.
