Free. No obligation. No judgment. Can your state levy your bank account for back taxes? Yes. Logan Allec, CPA, walks through a California Franchise Tax Board bank-levy notice and explains what to check when your funds are frozen, how state tax-relief options differ from IRS options, and why you need to act before the bank sends the money. IF YOUR ACCOUNT IS FROZEN • Identify the issuing tax agency, the amount held, and the bank's transfer date. • Contact the agency promptly about a release, hardship, an error, exempt funds, or an available payment arrangement. Approval depends on your facts and state rules. • Confirm that the bank actually received any release. A request or payment-plan application alone does not guarantee the money will be returned.

Other states have different notice requirements, holding periods, exemptions, remedies, and collection deadlines. • For California FTB bank orders covered by Revenue and Taxation Code section 18670, the minimum holding period is 10 BUSINESS days from the bank's receipt of the notice. Verify the actual transfer date with your bank; do not count from when you opened the letter. • The discussion of later deposits concerns the one-time bank levy shown. New levies and other types of collection orders can affect additional funds. • An existing state tax payment can affect an IRS financial analysis, but a dollar-for-dollar reduction is NOT guaranteed. IRS rules may limit or prorate the allowable payment depending on the timing of the agreement, your finances, and the resolution sought.
