From your posting, you don't say what kind of taxes are owed (whether they are your personal taxes, corporate taxes, or payroll). Depending on the circumstances as well (how long they have been demanding the payments, whether you have cooperated with them, or have been ignoring them, etc.), they may just be trying to protect the state's interest in collecting the taxes after trying other avenues.
Regardless, you need to contact the Department, or have an attorney contact them for you to make a hardship plea based on what your family's needs are.
