So if you didnt file your taxes on time for the first time, theres no jail penalty, right? just cash payment?

That it the way I read it from the link that I sent you when you asked earlier.  Looks like it is a financial penalty that keeps growing until you do pay it.

very illegal & just downright a dangerous trap to set yourself up for.  \nDon't do it...if you don't have the money DO NOT write the check.  It's easier to deal with late payments than jail!

I'm pretty certain that income tax evasion is a federal offense of which can include monetary penalty with JAIL TIME!  I'm a coward and subsequently would not want to risk such consequences.  But I would definitely support a FLAT TAX system!!!

If this is the only credit problem you have AND it is owed on this years (2005) taxes then yes. If it has already been classified as delinquent and reported as such then no, probably not.

Your taxes are taken before you get your check so no this is not possible.

Does it really matter?  All I can say is if you can't do the time don't do the crime.  If your guilty and in prison, you deserve everything you get because its my tax dollars paying for them to live there.

If a person is in jail they aren't earning income, therefore they don't have to pay taxes. But, all the income they earned prior to incarceration, and after, is taxable.

No, from what you wrote you did not work and had no income tax withheld.  Only income tax is refunded in the USA.  Sales tax is leaved by local governments and they have no refund procedures nor are you entitled to any of these taxes back.\n\nYour home government my have some plan to give you money for this but I don't think so.

IRS charges a Failure to File Penalty of 5% per month for 5 months.  So if you are one month late it is 5% more, 5 months late 25% more.  You only get the penalty if you owe.  If you have a refund, you must file within 3 years of the due date or you lose the refund.  If you earned more than $400 self employment income for 2005 or more than $5,000 in wages, you really should go ahead and file.

If you didn't make enough to pay tax, then you wouldn't be penalized if you file late.  But if you made much of anything, you probably owed tax - even if you didn't owe income tax, you probably owe self-employment tax.  \n\nGo ahead and file.  You'll owe the original tax due, plus interest and possibly penalties, but you won't be in major trouble.  If you wait until they catch up to you, you'll just make things worse.\n\nIf you can't pay all that you owe right away, the IRS will set up a payment plan.

You still have to file a tax form because you actually did earn money.  Sad, but true.  Since you don't want to pay e-file, do a written one and since it's miniscule the math is simple.  Remember, the 17th is the absolute final day to get those returns postmarked in the post office.  So grab a form and get to it.

2006 taxes are not due until April 15Th, 2007, State and Federal. 2005 taxes are due by midnight tonight, unless you filed for an extension before the deadline, which was today. I believe you can go to jail for not filing your tax returns but in some cases, you can arrange payments of $ due with your local IRS. So, file or mail your returns on time even if you don't have all the $ you owe.

Be prepared to admit you made a small mistake (if they find it)  and to pay for that mistake.\n \nBut, NEVER ADMIT YOU WERE TRYING TO GET AWAY WITH SOMETHING!!!! Admitting you were attempting to cheat will put you in jail.\n\nAvoiding taxes is legal, evading taxes is not.

Your financial institution (stockbroker, for example) is required to report those transactions to the IRS. There is a bit of processing time involved, but the IRS would probably find out you failed to report income within two or three years (probably faster nowadays--I can only hope they've upgraded their computer system since I worked there). \n\nYou would receive a long letter from the IRS when the paperwork caught up. Your consequences could include some combination of negative credit reports, interest charges, failure to pay penalty, jail time, and seizure of your property, depending upon the amount of taxes you owe and how quickly and politely you cooperate and pay up. \n\nThey don't have to do it often, but I understand IRS raids are considered the best-run raids in federal law enforcement.

you'll never get paid, the only people who attach tax returns is IRS, child support, and federal student loans. All the court judgement is good for is to go back to court again if he didn't keep the judgement. and if he is under the table or on welfare, what taxes will you get?

The rules go like this, you have 3 years to file your income tax return, since it seems that you will be getting a small amount back. You will not be penalized. Different story, if you owe money and wait to file, get ready for penalties & interest to be tacked on to whatever you owe.
