A tax lien is a legal claim filed in court by a government agency against a person or business owing taxes. Liens are civil, not criminal claims, and normally seek to attach money and/or property to pay the taxes. A list of liens is kept at the county courthouse showing who the government is pursuing and how much is sought. Liens can be filed for income taxes, unemployment taxes, sales taxes, real estate excise taxes, Social Security or disability taxes. When the tax lien is paid and released, papers are filed with the courts as well, affirming the discharge.
