Tax Liens Sales

How long after I pay an outstanding sales tax lien in NY state will they un-freeze my bank accounts?

They filed a tax lien against me about 30 days ago and now they have frozen my bank accounts. I am literally without any access to my money at all. I will have to put the entire payment of $7000 on a credit card. How long until they relinquish my funds in the bank?

1. Call them and ask. Normally any bank freeze will be lifted within a couple of days of confirmation of payment of the debt.
2. You should receive a notice in the mail once the tax lien is satisfied.
