For 2006 the amount claimed on my NJ1040 for Deductible Property Taxes was disallowed (in part) my appeal rights were provided and I filed an Appeal (noted by State as received on September 2; a December letter said the Appeals Branch would get back to me --Conference Staff or something like that).
Before I heard anything further on the 2006 Appeal, in November (after Appeal was filed/received) and December the State (1) Billed me for
2006 (additional tax they said was owed on property tax issue); (2) billed me for portion of Homestead Rebate paid to me in 2006 (3) said they would turn over amount owed to IRS for Federal Offset program if not paid (4) billed me for 2007, without any explanation of 2007 Appeal Rights (same issue, different year); and (5) deducted a portion of my 2009 state refund without any explanation (they said an explanation for 2009 refund deduction would follow, it has not).I called the Appeals section, left a message about the absurdity if not illegality of all of these actions BEFORE decision on 2006 tax year appeal was reached, voice-mail message has not yet been returned by Conference Staff person.
How do I stop the collateral damage (extending into 2007 and 2009 tax years with no appeal option) and reverse the damage intended (including the Federal Offset program) for the year/issue pending decision (2006 tax year).
Everything is being done while decision/conference on Appeal is still pending for 2006.
Thanks in advance.
