Legal Question in Tax Law in Massachusetts
My wife is being harrased for payment of excise tax in Ct. for '97-'99 for a Volvo 850GLT. We moved to Ma. in Nov. '97 and registered the car in '98. We are being asked to pay the excise tax for these years plus interest and penalties for $2400. We have registered and have paid excise tax in Ma. since '98. I am not understanding this situation. Also, isn't there a statute of limitaions?
Thank You,
Jerry Nepomuceno

Once the car ceased to be registered in Ct. no excise tax should be do. Send a copy of your MA registration to Ct.
As to the statute of limitations, you should ask a CT attorney.
