The government can't restrict your right to practice your religion by imposing taxes on religious activities or organisations.

The government cannot impose license fees on religious organizations for distributing religious literature if it unfairly burdens their religious practices. The First Amendment's Free Exercise Clause protects religious freedom.

Taxes on religious materials sold by religious organizations are generally permissible, as long as the tax is applied equally to all sellers and doesn't target religious activities.

A tax specifically targeting religious activities or creating a significant obstacle to practicing religion may violate the Free Exercise Clause.

The Contract Clause doesn't limit the government's ability to impose taxes, even if it affects existing contracts, unless there's a specific tax exemption.

Tax laws typically apply to future activities, transactions, or income that happen after the law is enacted.

Tax laws can be applied retroactively, meaning they apply to past activities, only if explicitly stated in the law or clearly intended by lawmakers.

If a tax law is unclear about whether it applies retroactively, it's usually interpreted as applying only prospectively.

Even if clearly intended, a retroactive tax law can be struck down if it's extremely unfair or burdensome.

Statutes, which are laws, generally apply to future actions and events, not those already happened. They are prospective, not retroactive.

Collecting interest on unpaid taxes is not a penalty but compensation for the government's delayed income. Therefore, even if the interest rate changes retroactively, it can still be applied to past tax debts.

Tax rulings, which are official interpretations of the law, usually can't be applied retroactively if it would harm taxpayers who relied on them in good faith.

Tax rulings can be applied retroactively if the taxpayer provided false information, the facts changed significantly, or they acted in bad faith.

The rule on non-retroactivity of rulings only applies to the taxpayer mentioned in the ruling, not to other taxpayers.

Taxes usually don't have a time limit for collection, meaning the government can claim them even years later.

While taxes are generally imprescriptible, specific laws might set time limits for assessing or enforcing certain taxes.

The time limits for tax assessment (calculating the amount owed) may be different from the time limits for tax enforcement (collecting the amount owed).

The legislature cannot delegate the determination of what will be taxed, the tax's purpose, its amount or rate, how it's collected, or the rules for collection.

A state can't tax property located outside its borders or impose taxes on activities taking place in another state.

Even if a person lives outside a state, they can be taxed by that state if there's a connection, like citizenship.

A state can tax someone or their property because it provides benefits and protection to them.

A state can tax the income of its citizens even if they live abroad, based on the citizen's relationship with the state.

Taxing power can be based on a person's relationship to the state (personal) or on the location of property (territorial).

The location of the source of income is not always the primary basis for a state's taxing power.
