What is the name of your state? Michigan
We live in a city where if you work in the city limits, you get local taxes taken out of your payroll. What I recently found out is that if you live in the city limits and work elsewhere, that you still have to pay the city tax out of your payroll, just a different percentage. The way I found this out was the city sent me a bill for the past 8 years of taxes due!! They said I owe them for the past 8 years that I lived in the city, and worked elsewhere, and want me to pay them just over $8,000. This is the first notice I've received, or the first I've heard that I had to pay city taxes being that I didn't work in the city. They even tacked on interest and penalties, and are saying the taxes are past due even though this is the first notice. Do I have any recourse? Is there any kind of time limit that they should have notified me before this?
