# $TAXMAN · Tax warrants New York State files

Tax warrants New York State's Department of Taxation and Finance filed in a month, by the date each was filed. A warrant is the state's legal claim on a person's or a business's property for a tax debt that went unpaid. The state's file adds a second row when a warrant is paid off or vacated; only the row that adds a warrant is counted, so a month already printed does not grow as old warrants close. Counted from December 2025: the state's file starts in July 2025 and its volume climbs through October and November, so December is the first month at the level it has held since.

## Settlement

Why this grade: A young file whose volume moved a lot in its first months, and the state can add a late filing to a month already printed. Shown, not settled on.
What it costs to move: Not practical. A warrant is the state's own filing.
When the source is late: A month prints seven days after it ends. If the file has nothing for the month, it stays open. A month the state never posts is void.
Precision: Whole warrants: rows with status code Added, by warrant filed date.
