If you forget to file your taxes, are you still able to file them now?

Question

If you forget to file your taxes, are you still able to file them now?

Answer 1

Yes, absolutely.  They'd much rather hear from you late, than to never hear from you at all.

There will be late fees, and an interest-based penalty, but they're usually fairly minor, so I wouldn't worry about that part too much.

Answer 2

$50,000.00     R  E  W  A  R  D

Is offered to anyone who can show me the following:

1. What statute makes me liable to pay an income tax.

2. How I can file an tax return without waiving my Fifth Amendment protected Rights.

My name is Bill Conklin and I have researched the Internal Revenue Code for twelve years. It is my opinion after extensive research that there is no statute that makes anyone liable for the income tax and that all individuals who file tax return waive their Fifth Amendment protected Rights. The I.R.S. refers to the income tax system as a “voluntary tax system” so they can continue to use the information proffered on 1040 Returns against individuals in criminal cases.

What does the I.R.S. say about me? Mr. Conklin “knows the I.R.S. and I.R.S. procedures inside and out.” (Quote of Russ Vialpando, Special Agent, Denver District Office.)

Answer 3

Yes, much better late than never.

As the others already said, you will be subject to penalty and interest if you owe.  But what they didn't say is that there is no penalty due if you get a refund like over 80% of people who file.

Answer 4

yes but the government will charge you a penalty...

Answer 5

you can file your taxes at any time. However, for the Stimulus Check refund, you have until October 15th to file in order to get that.  If you file and will get a refund there are no penalties.
