[WSBAPT] Dept of Revenue slow?

[Roger Hawkes]

The state (the 'king') is generally not subject to statutes of limitation and factual claims like adverse possession.  My hope is the state has somewhere agreed to be bound by the four month limitation for creditors' claims, but I don't know if that has occurred.

This appears to be the million dollar 2022 question.  I have gotten an e-mail (as has a colleague of mine Jennifer White who posted her) that we were getting turned over to the AG because DSHS basically doesn't have to the follow the rules.  So far, I've not heard from the AG and quite frankly, the federal statute the DSHS representative cited did not appear to have anything to do with claims of DSHS.  I transferred the property to the PR/Beneficiary who is aware of this claim as well.

If anything happens, I'll be sure to share it with the listserve.  Really, how can they not be tied to a very specific creditor time period?  That is nonsensical to me.

I am handling an estate where the PR thought a Medicaid lien should exist.  We are over 4 months since we mailed the Notice to Creditors (including decedent's social security number), and we haven't heard anything yet.  How long has it been taking to OFR to respond to Notice to Creditors?
If no lien shows on a title report on the residence, I assume we are clear to sell the residence without further notice to DSHS?
