Back Taxes & Unfiled Returns
“I haven't filed taxes in several years, how much trouble am I in?”
Several years of unfiled returns can create a range of issues, and the level of exposure often depends on whether there was tax due, whether income was reported by employers or banks, and whether any IRS or state notices have already been sent. In many cases, the concern is not just penalties and interest, but also missing refunds, refund offsets, or added scrutiny if income was reported to the government but not filed on the return. The exact situation usually turns on the years involved, the types of income, and whether records are still available to reconstruct the filings. Walking the details through with a CPA is the fastest way to know what truly applies here.
