Late Tax Filing for 2016

Don’t worry if you are a few years behind in tax filing, Paramount Tax’s tax advisers are here to help. Overdue and unfiled taxes are never a good thing to have on your record, but it is never too late to remedy the situation.

If you were owed a refund on your 2016 taxes:

Then you still have a chance to collect your money! As long as you have filed your return within three years of the deadline, you can still collect your refund. While you won’t face any fines for filing late when you don’t owe, in order to remain in good standing with the IRS you should always file on time. It is never a good idea to leave taxes unfiled. And remember, the only way to collect your refund is if you file.

If you owe the IRS money and you haven’t filed:

Every month you are late filing owed taxes, you start accruing a 5% failure-to-file fine, up to 25% of your total taxes owed, in addition to a failure-to-pay fine. The longer you go without paying, the more dire your situation. The IRS could file a return for you, seize your property, or freeze your bank accounts in order to collect your debt. If you are in a sticky situation with unpaid late 2016 taxes, then it is a good idea to speak with a qualified tax adviser.
