What if I Have Not Filed?

The lifestyle of a traveler makes it easy to put off completing tax returns and you are not alone. Over 25% of taxpayers have not filed their returns in the past 3 years. There is no statute of limitations on owed taxes, so you are still liable for any amounts you owe until 3 years after filing plus penalties and interest which continue to accrue as you read this. Call us today and we can help you sort through your filing requirements.
