Common Questions
What is a NYS tax warrant?
A New York State tax warrant is a legal judgment filed against you by the Department of Taxation and Finance for unpaid taxes. Once filed, it gives the state immediate authority to freeze your bank account, garnish your wages, and seize your property — without any additional court order.
How do I know if I have one?
Tax warrants are public records. Enter your name above and we'll take you directly to the official NYS database. If your name appears, a warrant exists against you. The database is updated twice per week.
My business has a warrant — what do I do?
Act immediately. Every day the balance grows with interest and penalties. You have options — payment plans, penalty abatement, and in some cases warrant challenges. Visit StopMyTaxWarrant.com to get the right documents prepared fast.
Can I check someone else's name?
Yes. Tax warrant records are completely public. You can check anyone's name — a business partner, landlord, contractor, or employer. Many people use this tool to check before entering into a business deal.
How long does a NYS tax warrant last?
NYS tax warrants are active for 20 years — significantly longer than IRS liens which last 10 years. The balance grows the entire time with compounding interest and penalties.
