Back Taxes & Unfiled Returns
“I missed filing taxes for 2 years, what am I facing?”
Missing two years of returns can affect several parts of a tax picture, including possible IRS notices, unpaid balances, refund claims, and the way penalties or interest may accumulate. The exact impact often depends on whether income was reported elsewhere, whether any withholding or estimated payments were made, and whether the returns are for wage income, self-employment, or another source. In some cases, unfiled returns can also complicate loans, benefits, or future filings because prior-year information may not be fully reconciled. A CPA who reads your specifics can usually tell you, in plain English, where this lands.
In your 60-minute session, the KGOB advisor handling it will:
- Read your exact situation and tell you, in plain English, what’s actually going on.
- Lay out your options and the trade-offs — no jargon, no judgment.
- Give you a clear next step you can act on, whether that’s with us or on your own.
