Conn. Gen. Stat. § 12-35a

(b) Perfection of state's lien on goods of taxpayer. Upon failure of any person to pay any tax, except taxes under chapter 216, due the state within thirty days from its due date, or if before the due date of any tax, except taxes under chapter 216, the Commissioner of Revenue Services believes that the collection of such tax will be jeopardized by delay, the state shall have a lien, upon perfection as hereinafter provided, upon the goods, accounts, chattel paper, instruments, documents, investment property, deposit accounts, commercial tort claims and general intangibles situated in this state and owned by the taxpayer upon the date of perfection, or upon the goods, accounts, chattel paper, instruments, documents, investment property, deposit accounts, commercial tort claims and general intangibles thereafter acquired by the taxpayer. Such lien shall attach and become perfected at the time when notice of such lien is filed pursuant to the filing provisions of part 5 of article 9 of title 42a, except that the signature of the taxpayer against whose property the lien is claimed shall not be required on said notice of lien and, in each case, the lien shall be filed as if the debtor were located in this state. Nothing in this section shall be construed as prohibiting the commissioner from filing both a notice of lien as if the debtor were located in this state and a notice of lien with the filing office of a state other than this state, if the commissioner determines that it would be beneficial to this state to do so. Except as hereinafter provided, upon perfection, such lien shall have priority over all subsequently perfected liens and security interests.

(d) State lien effective for ten years. The lien shall be effective for a period of ten years from the date of filing unless discharged as hereinafter provided.

In proceeding to enforce such lien, the state shall observe the procedures applicable to a secured party under sections 42a-9-601 to 42a-9-628 , inclusive.

(f) Security interests or property not subject to tax lien. Even though notice of tax lien has been filed, such lien shall not be valid with respect to: (1) A security interest which came into existence after tax lien filing but which (A) is in qualified property covered by the terms of a written agreement entered into before tax lien filing and constituting a commercial transactions financing agreement or an obligatory disbursement agreement and (B) is protected under the laws of this state against a judgment lien arising, as of the time of tax lien filing, out of an unsecured obligation; (2) a security interest which came into existence after tax lien filing by reason of disbursements made before the forty-sixth day after the date of tax lien filing, or before the person making such disbursements had actual notice or knowledge of tax lien filing, whichever is earlier, but only if such security interest (A) is in property subject at the time of tax lien filing, to the lien imposed by this section and covered by the terms of a written agreement entered into before tax lien filing and (B) is protected under the laws of this state against a judgment lien arising, as of the time of tax lien filing, out of an unsecured obligation; (3) tangible personal property purchased at retail, as against a purchaser in the ordinary course of the seller's trade or business, unless at the time of such purchase such purchaser intends such purchase to, or knows such purchase will, hinder, evade, or defeat the collection of any tax; or (4) a purchase money security interest, if said purchase money security interest would be prior to a conflicting security interest in the same collateral under section 42a-9-324 .

(g) Discharge of state tax lien. When the amount of tax, penalty or interest with respect to which a lien has been created under this section has been satisfied, the Commissioner of Revenue Services, upon request of any interested party, shall issue a certificate discharging such lien, which certificate shall be filed with the Uniform Commercial Code Division of the office of the Secretary of the State in the same manner as termination statements are filed under section 42a-9-513 .
