Tax Help for Unfiled, Back Tax Returns
Being a former IRS agent and teaching instructor I can tell you many taxpayers are frozen when attempting to file their back tax returns. Fear, panic, worry and a lack of money are the main problems.
Once taxpayers stop filing the first year the snowball effect starts. Most taxpayers just stop filing unless they are forced to file a tax return.
Most of this fear however is unfounded.
IRS simply wants all taxpayers to get back in the system and sooner or later the IRS will be knocking on your door asking you to file back tax returns.
Due to manpower they simply cannot catch up on all the non-filers but your time will come in its usually at one of the worst times possible. Your case could be sitting in the local office but due to unmanageable inventories field calls cannot be made because there are so many cases in the queue.
When I worked for Internal Revenue Service I had over 450 taxpayers and needless to say inventories are unmanageable.
With that said the IRS is more than happy to work with cooperating taxpayers who are ready to file back taxes and work out a tax settlement with them.
If you are stuck in that the dilemma of being frozen, it is time to be assertive and just file the back tax returns. Nothing will happen to you, believe I know, I was a former IRS agent for 10 years.
Tips for Filing Unfiled, Back Tax Returns.
1. Take the mind set you want to resolve this once and for all.
2. Gather what ever tax records you have and find a firm such as Fresh Start Tax LLC who can accurately prepare your unfiled, back tax returns.
3. If you have lost your tax records have that tax firm reconstruct your unfiled or back tax returns. This is a very simple process.
4.  If you contact the Internal Revenue Service they can help in the process by giving you all their income reports they have on file for the last seven years.
Do not be afraid to ask the IRS because at some point the Internal Revenue Service is going to be asking for your tax return. If you are afraid to do this call us today and we can handle all communication and you will never have to speak to the Internal Revenue Service.
5. Remember IRS knows you have not filed back tax returns, for you are not disclosing anything new to them.
6. By obtaining these income reports for the last seven years from the IRS you will receive all your W-2s, 1099s or other income reports that were issued to the Internal Revenue Service on your behalf.
By getting this information you will stay out of an IRS tax audit the llama.
7.  Send all the tax returns in at one time.
You’re not fooling anyone by putting them in separate envelopes or staggering them along the way.
8.  If you do not file your  back or unfiled tax returns know this, that IRS can for. IRS can and will file for your tax return under 6020 B of the Internal Revenue Code.
It allows the Internal Revenue Service to file your tax return and they will do you no favors in  filing unfiled back tax return . You will pay the highest amount allowed by law.
9. Do not be afraid to file because you owe money.
There are many different settlement strategies that you can use to settle your case with Internal Revenue Service.
IRS will require a current financial statement. After the IRS analysis they will either place your case into a currently not collectible file, ask you for a monthly or installment payment or let you know that you are a suitable candidate for an offer in compromise.
