Personal Property Tax is a tax on PERSONAL property not a registration fee or a license fee.. Same goes for a boat, it is your personal property even if is not licensed. I'm guessing, but I believe some states give you a registration when your personal property is taxed for the year. Other states separate personal property and license fees and further they may have a title for your vehicle which never expires even when inactivated for storage. Of course you won't license it until you once again put it on the road. A return to a licensed state may have an extra charge to reactivate. WI sends you a yearly card for each vehicle which you send back with the money then cometh the sticker for another year. There is a block whereby you state the vehicle is out of service and will not be on the road. The title stays in the system until you reactivate it. 2 bits, Mike -----Original Message----- From: Nick Tiberio [mailto:furyus63@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2008 7:08 PM To: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Need off topic help Ken, Each municipal tax authority has it's own policy for collecting unpaid taxes. Your PP tax on the car was for the period of registration up to the time of cancellation with CT DMV or it's expiration. It does not matter where the car is. I would find out what the collection rules are for the city or town you lived in. Find out if you can plea your case for a settlement or something. The main thing is to find out what your liability is. As I would advised my own son, check it out, these days liabilities can haunt you. Some DMV's are now reciprocal with several states for unpaid taxes as they are with violations such as No Bail Compact. Just don't make deals with the Devil, (collection agency).
