What do I do if I haven't filed taxes in multiple years? so the first thing that we do when we have a client who comes in as a non filer and may be a few years behind on their taxes as we do what we call an analysis we go to the IRS we get copies of their entire file and we do go through the client swaging income and account history to determine, what income they had in what years at least what the IRS has on file and what we're seeing in their account to determine whether or not they have any liability associated with that from there we recommend an outline a plan of action for the client common misconception is that non filers have so you haven't filed multiple years of tax returns you have to go through and file every single tax return for every single year that's simply not the case, so one of the reasons we do the analysis is to determine exactly what years the taxpayer has to file for exactly what type of income that they're looking at the next thing we do is we get all that information into an easily readable form over to the clients CPA so that they can prepare the returns that are needed to solve the issue once those returns get prepared signed and file with the IRS eventually about six weeks after processing.
The client will start receiving bills and then once we understand how much the client owes with penalties and interest we can start putting a collection resolution in place with the IRS so even though the fact that you haven't filed tax returns on the number of years seems like a daunting task if you break it down step by step it's actually pretty easy to deal with the problem well it's pretty straightforward to deal with the problem it may not always be easy but the good news is we have experience in dealing with lots of non filing cases and can help guide you through it as best as possible.
