Collection Statute of Limitations · Verified

A state tax lien is enforceable for 10 years from filing, renewable for an additional 10 (S.C. Code Ann. §12-54-120 / §12-54-122); assessment limitation 3 years (§12-54-85).

Verified South Carolina Resolution Options

Installment agreements: Payment plan agreements under SCDOR authority (S.C. Code Ann. §12-54-200) via MyDORWAY.

Offer in compromise / settlement: Agreement or compromise as to taxpayer liabilities authorized under S.C. Code Ann. §12-4-320(3) (permissive powers; doubt as to liability/collectibility, hardship).

Penalty abatement: Penalty waiver for reasonable cause under S.C. Code Ann. §12-54-160.

Wage / levy protection: South Carolina prohibits wage garnishment for most consumer debts, but state taxes CAN be collected by wage levy under S.C. Code Ann. §12-54-130. 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.

Citation status: Statutory citations verified against state sources. S.C. Code Ann. §12-54-120 confirmed via Justia/scstatehouse.gov: state tax lien on all property; lien effective for 10 years from date of filing. OIC corrected to §12-4-320(3) ("agreement or compromise as to taxpayer liabilities") — prior cite §12-4-340 is actually collection-agency contracting (confirmed via scstatehouse.gov, which cross-references compromise under §12-4-320(3)). §12-54-130 wage levy confirmed.
