Collection Statute of Limitations

Constitutional prescription: collection of state tax prescribes 10 years after the last day of the year in which the tax was due (La. Const. art. VII §16; La. R.S. §47:1580).

Verified Louisiana Resolution Options

Installment agreements: Installment payment agreements under LDR authority (La. R.S. §47:1576) via LaTAP.

Offer in compromise / settlement: Offer in Compromise authorized under La. R.S. §47:1578 (doubt as to collectibility/liability).

Penalty abatement: Penalty waiver for reasonable cause under La. R.S. §47:1603.

Wage / levy protection: Federal CCPA floor (15 U.S.C. §1673): ordinary creditor garnishment limited to the lesser of 25% of disposable earnings or the amount exceeding 30× the federal minimum wage. State tax levies on wages may exceed this consumer cap at agency discretion. Louisiana exempts 75% of disposable earnings, with a higher floor (La. R.S. §13:3881).

Citation status: Agency-level guidance with best-documented citations; confirm exact section numbers with the agency. Louisiana’s 10-year constitutional prescription (La. Const. art. VII §16) is well documented; R.S. 47 collection/OIC/penalty sections reflect LDR practice but the §47:1578/§47:1580 numbers were not all independently re-confirmed.
