Do you have a lien on your home? If a lien is placed on your home, you will not be able to refinance to pay back taxes.
The lien doesn't usually affect after-acquired property unless it's an income tax lien. You cannot mortgage, refinance or sell the property against which the lien was recorded. That is exactly the purpose of recording a lien in the land records.
You will be notified of the lien/debt. In order to clear the home title (i.e.- for sale, or refinance, etc) the lien/debt will have to be satisfied. Depending upon the size of the lien and the circumstances, the lien holder may be able to force a sale of the property in order to collect the debt. It also depends on the lien holder's position. Priority is given to a tax lien, then the 1st mortgage, 2nd, etc.
The IRS could get a lien on your home for failing to pay any income taxes that may be due. If there is a federal tax lien on your home, you must satisfy the lien before you can sell or refinance your home.
The lien will have to be satisfied if he's to remain on the deed. The easiest course of action is to take him off -- the title company can handle this, it's not an overly-complicated procedure.
When you sell or refinance they get paid

No. Only the IRS and/or state tax agencies can place a lien against real property of the person who has tax arrearages. Also, only the IRS or States can get a lien filed without going to court.
An IRS tax lien typically expires after ten years. The problem with this is that there are two types of IRS liens. The more common type is called a "self-releasing" lien.If you are able to obtain a copy of the lien itself, you want to check to see if it says something along the lines of "this lien expires on SOME DATE unless refiled". If it says that, you have a self-releasing lien.The problem with this is that the credit bureaus do not seem to understand the concept of the self-releasing lien. They simply watch the public records to see if the IRS has reported the lien as being released, and if the IRS has not done so they assume the lien is still in force.A lender will typically want a tax lien released or subordinated to the new lender if you are trying to refinance the home. You can contact the the IRS Lien Unit at 1-800-913-6050 and ask them if they show any liens on file. If they say no, tell them that there is an old tax lien that is still showing up on your credit report and they should be able to fax you a formal Release of Lien and also mail one to your County Clerk and Recorder.If the lien is actually still in force (which is unlikely, given that the IRS Statute of Limitations to collect a debt is 10 years) then you will need to get a Certificate of Subordination before you can close on the loan.
what is this tax lien for
It means that you owe someone money, they have obtained a judgment against you and you will not be able to sell or refinance your property until the lien is paid and a discharge is recorded.
