Collection Statute of Limitations · Verified

A Certificate of Debt (COD) docketed as a judgment must be renewed every 20 years; in practice collection can extend the full 20-year (renewable) life of the COD (N.J. Stat. Ann. §54:49-12 et seq.). Superior Court suits limited to taxes assessed within 6 years (§54:49-12).

Verified New Jersey Resolution Options

Installment agreements: Deferred Payment Plan under NJ DOT authority (N.J. Stat. Ann. §54:49-13.1).

Offer in compromise / settlement: Closing agreement / compromise authorized under N.J. Stat. Ann. §54:53-1 et seq. (doubt as to liability/collectibility).

Penalty abatement: Penalty waiver for reasonable cause under N.J. Stat. Ann. §54:49-11.

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. New Jersey caps wage garnishment at 10% of income if earnings are below 250% of the federal poverty level, otherwise the federal 25%/75% rule (N.J. Stat. Ann. §2A:17-50/§2A:17-56).

Citation status: Statutory citations verified against state sources. New Jersey’s 20-year Certificate of Debt renewal cycle and 6-year Superior Court suit limit confirmed via multiple practitioner sources. Title 54:53 closing-agreement/compromise authority is documented NJ law.
