Every day the massive computer
center at the IRS is getting more sophisticated, it's just a matter of time
before they catch up with individuals or businesses that have not filed their
prior year returns. This is not a
situation to take lightly, failing to file your tax returns is a criminal
offense. Let us give you the peace
of mind you deserve by helping you get in compliance with the law. If you
voluntarily file your delinquent returns you'll likely avoid further problems
as well as minimizing penalties and interest.
If you wait for the IRS to file
your returns for you, they are filed in the best interest of the government,
usually with little or none of the deductions you are entitled to.
Before anything can be done to
extract you from this predicament all the returns must be filed. You must be
current. In most cases, you will likely owe taxes, interest, and penalties
after the returns are filed. Once we see how much is owed, we'll set a course of
action to get you into compliance and back in good standing. We will also determine whether the
unfiled returns were do to reasonable cause and not willful neglect, which
could help us prepare a case for penalty abatement on your behalf, depending on
your individual circumstances. Sometimes,
clients are pleasantly surprised to find they are due a refund after filing the
late returns. If this is the case,
we will make sure that the returns are prepared and filed timely so that
potential refunds are not lost.
Generally, a taxpayer that is due a refund must file the return within
three years of the original due date of the returns or two years after the
taxes were paid, whichever is later.
