Collection Statute of Limitations · Verified

Income-tax collection is lien-driven: the state’s lien attaches to the taxpayer’s property (N.D. Cent. Code §57-38-48) and is enforced under §§57-38-49, 57-38-50, and 57-38-51 (collection/lien provisions, including warrant authority). Assessment limitation 3 years (§57-38-38).

Verified North Dakota Resolution Options

Installment agreements: Payment agreements under ND OSTC authority (N.D. Cent. Code §57-01-15) via the ND TAP portal.

Offer in compromise / settlement: No broad statutory personal-income-tax OIC program — doubtful-collectibility settlements at Tax Commissioner discretion under the §57-38-49/50/51 collection framework.

Penalty abatement: Penalty waiver for reasonable cause under N.D. Cent. Code §57-38-45.

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. North Dakota exempts 75% of disposable earnings plus $25/week per dependent (N.D. Cent. Code §32-09.1-03).

Citation status: Statutory citations verified against state sources. N.D. Cent. Code §57-38-38 (3-year assessment limitation) confirmed via FindLaw. Income-tax lien/collection framework §§57-38-48/49/50/51 confirmed via ndlegis.gov and FindLaw cross-reference (§57-38-60 references §§57-38-49, 57-38-50, 57-38-51).
