Property Lien
Are You Inquiring About A Property Lien?
When you fail to pay past due tax liabilities, a lien may be filed. A lien may affect your ability to maintain existing credit, secure new credit, or obtain a security clearance. The recorded lien serves as notice that the state may have a claim against your assets and is public record. Once the liability on the lien is paid in full, we will provide a release to the court and a copy to you so that anyone inquiring on the status of your lien will know that it has been satisfied.
To pay off your tax lien:
- Contact our office to receive a current payoff amount. This can be done by emailing cdcollectionind@marylandtaxes.gov or calling 410-974-2432.
- You will be instructed to make payment via a certified check or money order if you desire an immediate release. Otherwise, we will have to confirm the payment has cleared before issuing the release.
- If you cannot pay the lien amount in full, we will provide you with payment plan and potential settlement options.
- If you have already paid off a lien and it has not been recorded at the court, you may contact our office to obtain a copy of the release.
