Search and Ye Shall Receive: Payday Loan Jail, Property Tax Liens, and Teenage Daughters

Author: Nick
Category: Money
Topics: , , , ,

Search and Ye Shall Receive returns with more answers to questions people have recently asked search engines that brought them to Punny Money.

Jail for Unpaid Payday Loans?

payday lenders leave you out to dry but not in jail

Can I be sent to jail for not having money for payday loan? (via Google)

This person might want to consult with a real lawyer and check his or her state and local laws, but I’ll still share my view on this. I previously stated that you could go to jail for lying on a credit card application (e.g. stating you make $250,000 a year when you really make $6.50 an hour). In theory, the same could be true for payday loan applications. That said, payday lenders typically don’t collect the sort of information you would normally lie about, so the chances of incriminating yourself over a payday loan are very slim. If you’re worried about payday lenders getting you arrested for not paying your loan, you can relax. It’s illegal for payday lenders to threaten you with jail over unpaid loans. Just be sure not to write any bad checks when paying back the loan; they can still land you in legal trouble.

Do Delinquent Property Taxes Mean No Income Tax Refund?

your tax return is likely safer than your property

If you owe back property taxes, will you not get a tax refund? (via Ask)

Your Federal income tax refund is likely safe because property taxes are collected by state governments. Your state income tax refund is also probably safe, but that’s because the state has a much easier way to collect property taxes in arrears: tax lien sales. Normally once a year, counties or states will “sell” the rights to collect unpaid property taxes on a property to whomever wants to buy them. The buyer then jumps to the head of the line on most liens placed on the property (like mortgages and judgments, but not other state tax liens). When you go to sell the property, you’ll have to cough up the money to pay off those liens.

There are also tax deed sales in which your property is sold out from under you to pay off your delinquent taxes. Obviously this is far worse than just having a lien placed on your property.

So the answer to this question is no, your tax refunds will likely not be affected; but you might want to hold on to those refunds to pay for an apartment if your property goes to a tax deed sale.

How to Talk to Your Teenage Daughter?

aaaah, floating lips, nooooooooooo

How do you talk to a teenage daughter? (via Google)

Good question. When I’m talking to your teenage daughter, I usually ask these questions first:

  1. Are your parents home?
  2. You are 18, right?

Oh, you probably wanted advice on talking to your own teenage daughter. Uh, good luck with that.

I like the idea of ‘Search and Ye Shall Receive’! Giving the answers to phrases people have searched for to find you site is a great idea. I’m not sure about debt in the USA but here in the UK you’ll end up with nothing if you don’t repay your credit card debts. The credit card and loan companies will get their money back eventually!

Fortunately in Ohio they have all but finally run the Pay Day lenders out of town. There was a big stink about the APR of pay day loans (was 390%). That has been capped now, and if memory serves me right its 28%.

I haven’t yet got a credit card and am reluctant to get one, after working in the financial difficulties department of a major bank i’ve seen the absolute devastation and desperation irresponsible lending can leave families in. As Simon stated credit card companies will always get their money back in the end, and often they don’t care about the trail of hopelessness they leave in their wake.

Receiving mortgage advice early on is invaluable for any home owner. When problems do occur, mortgage advice and debt counseling can often be combined. Ways of saving money can be discussed, methods to make extra money identified and a complete solution brought into action to Stop Repossession.An extension of the mortgage term does result in more interest being paid, but also brings the monthly repayments down. Being able to stop repossession is all about making life more affordable and spreading the cost over longer helps to achieve this objective.

The most common way to look for a positively geared property is to find out the average rental price in each suburb. Then calculate what the mortgage repayments will be and associated costs. Then find out what the mortgage must be to make this a positively geared or break even property.

To answer the question in comment #7, sales tax is an extra charge that is added to the purchase of most sales. It is the obligation of the business owner to payt sales tax to the government, which is why the collect it first from buyers at the point of purchase.

Property tax is an annual tax that homeowners must pay on their property based on, amongst other factors, the value of their real estate property.

Fom what i understand of the law you cannot go to jail for owing money to payday loan lenders, not straight away anyway. Some lenders will simply take the money owed from your bank account without permission, it’s in the contract.

However if there no money to take this will result in a court appearance and could result in a period of time in jail, this again is a variable and down to many different factors aswell as the judge you happen to get.

No, you cannot go to jail for not paying back a payday loan. Some payday loan companies may try to tell you that you can go to jail because not paying back the loan could be considered check fraud, but they’re just making threats in hopes that you’ll pay. However, that doesn’t mean that a payday loan consolidation company cannot take other forms of action against you.

Melissa - Stop Home Repossession
September 25th, 2010 at 4:25 am

If you do not pay back your debt, it is considered as civil offense not a criminal offense – so they cannot put you in jail. However, writing bad cheque or false declaration on the agreement, as mentioned in the stroy, are serious offense. Otherwise, for outstanding unsecured debts a creditor cannot send you to jail nor can they repossess your home usually.

I would have said “timely post” if I saw this in 2007 since a lot of people were in trouble back then. Unfortunately, sadly, pitifully, I will still say timely post.

There is no problem in getting payday loans, aside from interest rates that could be mistaken for stealing, just make sure that you use them wisely and that you can pay for it.

In fact, I have never met people who get into jail for not paying back payday loans as there is no law that would state such measure. As far as I know, the only consequence for not repaying such cash advance is that you can lose the opportunity to apply for them the next time as payday loan lenders have particular blacklist of clients who haven’t returned the lent funds.
