Back Taxes & Unfiled Returns
“I haven't filed my taxes for 2 years, how much trouble am I in?”
Missing two years of returns can create a range of issues, and the level of trouble often depends on whether tax was owed, whether refunds are involved, and whether any IRS notices have already arrived. In many cases, the picture also changes based on whether income came from wages, self-employment, or multiple sources, since those records can affect what the IRS already has on file. Unfiled returns can lead to penalties, interest, and collection activity over time, but the exact outcome varies with the facts and the filing history. Walking the details through with a CPA is the fastest way to know what truly applies here.
