I recently paid a debt to NY State for 6,000 bucks - they didn’t like some deductions I made for a theater performance we produced. They threatened to take away our driver’s license and our home and our passport. According to NY law, they couldn’t take my cat or dog. Which is sad because I was more than willing to give up my nasty little 18 year old tabby.
Serious? Wow. But, do they actually have the legal means to seize your personal stuff, or are they just threatening to?
