If people do not file their taxes on time, then they need to file their taxes late. If you owe tax, then there is penalty and interest to pay for filing late. If you receive a refund, then there is no penalty. However, you need to file your tax return within three (3) years of its original due date, in order to receive a refund. As such, the deadline for filing a tax return in order to receive a 2011 tax refund is April 15, 2015. The IRS says that they still have over $1 Billion of 2011 refund money available. You may file older tax returns, but the IRS will not send a refund check. Filing back taxes is hard to do, but not impossible. We are available to prepare back taxes, not only back to 2011, but much further back in time. We are also available to help obtain old W-2 forms and other tax related materials. Because the Bankruptcy Code requires that all back taxes be filed in order to file bankruptcy, this has long been an important issue for me as an attorney. However, it is more fun helping people to get old refunds. Let me help you and let’s have some fun together.
