I had one year that my taxes sent in the mail apparently got lost. I only had about $12.oo coming back, so I paid no attention to it. Nothing came of it until 5 years later. The IRS sent me a notice saying they never received it. That with penalties and interest I OWED THEM over $48,000.oo!\nI had to get an attorney.....ended up costing me around $11,000.oo.

Definitely call them.  Just because it is their fault they were late processing, they will still get ya for whatever they can think of.  Just like the IRS - they will come back years later finding a mistake on your tax return and they have the Ba l l s to stick you with late fees and interest for all the time it took them to object.

yes. there's a federal statute that allows them to only go 3 years back. i do taxes for a living for the state and i've seen many people amend them further back, and have refunds, but they don't get the money. if i were you i would check with a lawyer to see what can be done.

does his paycheck show the same amount of hours each week?  Are they taking out more taxes and that's why he's getting less money?  if he's clocking in and out and they are not paying him all of his hours then you can report you should be able to report them to the Department of Labor or similiar agency.

I retired from IRS Collection Division 2 yrs ago after working 28 yrs. You need to go/phone IRS and ask for paperwork to file an "Offer in Compromise" Anyone who owes taxes to IRS has a RIGHT to this. It is a way for people to settle their tax debt when they cannot fully pay it. The IRS is required to help you along in the process, you do NOT need to pay an att'y or accountant to help you. You offer what you can afford, as little as $1. If you feel the IRS person is not helping you, then you have a RIGHT to speak to their supervisor. If the offer becomes accepted the tax lien is removed. I urge you to take action now, do not delay in contacting IRS. Write down names & ph # of IRS employees you talk to and notes as to what they tell you. Good luck.

You will have a hard time with the IRS come tax time with 1099 workers. Do they work with other firms? Do you set their hours? Are you in control of thier working conditions. Do they supply their own equippment or work solely with yours. The wrong answer to these questions will raise red flags at the IRS. If your 1099 workers don't pay their taxes you'll have hell to pay. You need workers comp.

You are required to file a return if you have income, whether you owe taxes or no.  The Government wants you to report income and THEY will decide if you owe taxes.  A tax return is not just a request for a "return", you report earnings on tax return and figure amount owed.  I'd plead ignorance and get in touch with IRS.at the nearest office.

Yes, he is violating several state and local laws.  Tax evasion is the big one.  But he is also hurting you, you could face tax evasion as well if you do not report the income and pay taxes on it.  Not that it will  be there, but his not reporting also hurts you later in life when you try to collect social security, the less you pay in the less you get.  One last thing, with no record that you work there, you have no protection if you get hurt on the job.

Sounds like your attorney isnt doing the job you pay for.  \n\nIs there a court order for support?  Is it paid thru the county support office where you live?  Both of these should be true.  If they arent fix it.  \n\nCan you provide proof he has not been paying legally obligated support?  If so, no judge in the country will fail to order him to make good.  Likewise, failure to do so over a certain period or amount will result in the court taking action.  They can take his drivers license, and worse even put him in jail.  \n\nNo matter he is self employed.  You can go by his tax returns and the court will order him to produce the documents.  \n\ntry going to legal aid where you live\n\nI paid my support religiously for 15 years and never missed a payment.

You need to call the IRS and get a copy of your transcript for 1993.  If you filed, you'll have the proof.  If you didn't, then you'll have to file--and pay the penalties and late fees.

If you are legally employed in the US, you are entitled to your own deductions and refund. He shouldn't be able to compel you to pay him any part of your refund.

In most cases, if you NEVER filed for the year in question, there IS NO staute.  This is the PEOPLE's money, not yours, Comrade.

If you don't file an answer and otherwise defend yourself, they win and you get a civil judgement against you.  That could include a court order to shut you down.  If you have no assets they could sieze, they could still garnish your future wages.  It also doesn't look really good on your record if you later try to do business with someone and they look it up.

You're not in trouble, per se, because you have 3 years to file a return in order to get a refund (if due).  But what happens when you don't file a return is that IRS files a Substitute 1040 for you, and then they add penalties and interest to it, and the interest is accumulative, so you're much better off filing it now to eliminate owing them any more than you may already owe.  If you owe and can't pay, they will work out a payment plan with you, and you should take their offer, because the interest they charge is much less than paying it with a credit card.  And you don't need to hire someone to file the return for you; just go to irs.gov, find the form, fill it out and mail it in.

I think he's still supposed to file taxes even without making any money last year. My fiance sorta did the same thing. He had a business that didn't recieve incoming or outgoing income and he got a letter saying that he still needs to file every year. As for FAFSA, there is an option to select to file taxes later and if you select that then after April FAFSA will send you an email or letter asking you to update any information so that it is accurate after your taxes have been filed. Tomorrow is the deadline to recieve grants. You can still recieve grants if you submit after the deadline, but you have a slim chance of actually recieving any,  but you will still qualify for loans or work studies. I suggest you call them and see what you need to do, but don't panic because its not too late taxes aren't due until April. Remember that anytime you need to contact financial-aid offices that you'll need several hours to get through and figure everything out. Is the verification through your school or through FAFSA? You might need to go to the school and go to their financial aid office (that might be better because then you can ask them what they suggest that you do). Go tomorrow so its not too late! Try not to go on Mondays or Fridays and try to go early in the morning! Good Luck!

You would need to subpoena their tax return records.  If you do it that way, they have to turn them over to you.

You can either file "Married, jointly" or "Married Filing Separately."\nYou probably also need to learn about the "Innocent Spouse Rule" if your husband will not sign the tax return.\n\ngo to http://www.irs.gov for more information
