-I had ordered cigarettes online for a couple of years. I stopped in 12/09. Apparenly the company I bought cigarettes from got "busted". All my info was put in the hands of the Ct. Dept. of Revenue services. They say I owe $3500. I am addicted to cigarettes, disabled and broke. No way to pay this amount. They pray on the poor people who can't afford them. I know I can appeal this, but don't know what to say or how to do this. I know I have to get a form from the State ofo Ct. This whole this has put me under a lot of pressure and fear. If you have any information or wording I can use to help me, it would be greatly appreciated. A Big
Thank You In Advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!鈥?/div>
"I know I can appeal this..." Really? How do you know that? You were caught evading taxes and you think that you deserve some consideration because you're disabled and broke? You should be thankful that CT hasn't decided to prosecute you for tax evasion and possibly even for illegal distribution of tobacco products as your neighbor state RI often does.
Your only option is to get on a payment plan. Give up the butts (If I can, you can too!) and use that money to make your payments.
There's not much you can do. They caught you for tax evasive basically and you owe the state that money you didn't pay them. If you're disabled I'm assuming you get health insurance through the state. Have the doctor help you quite smoking and use that money you save on buying cigarettes to pay them back. If you call them up and explain you're situation, they can work out a payment plan for you that you can afford
You owe the taxes. There is no reasonable excuse why you don't. What you did was to illegal evade paying the taxes you owed. The best you can do is tell them you can't pay it and see what happens. Maybe you won't have to pay and a couple weeks in jail will do the trick.
You are addicted to them? Good excuse. I guess that one will start to be used by crackheads who murder people for money to buy more crack. "Couldn't help it, I'm addicted."
You can't appeal. You admit you bought the cigarettes. You admit you never filed the use tax for them. You knew you were getting a "deal" when you bought online.
Of course the firm you bought from was busted--the state sees a tax leakage and goes after it.
You MIGHT be able to argue for a lesser amount using "offer in compromise."
you may be addicted to them but they are not a necessity and if you are broke purchasing cigarettes should be the last thing you would buy
there probably is no exclusion for you, or anyone else for that matter, cigarettes are definitely NOT a necessity, like food
Cigarettes are not a necessity you should have to pay just like everybody else. You can quit, others have.
Many states are cracking down on people who buy cigarettes online, but don't pay the tax in their own state like they're required to. Sorry, but you evaded the tax then, so still owe it. You can't appeal it unless you can show you didn't really buy them or that you did already pay the tax.
You need to get un-addicted. Not easy I know, but people do it. Would help both being broke AND your health.
