some digging. our state website will have information

getting close to the expiration
date for refund eligibility,
file that year first so you can
capitalize on your refund. In the event
you're due a refund, then there
are no penalties owed.

to file all of your subsequent state
taxes at the same time, however
in different different packages

have both a refund and a debt and
it is not automatically held,
use the
former to pay the latter, by all
means use the refund to pay off
the debt as quickly as possible.
