I have not filed my taxes in about 6 years... in that time i had a levy or two, but now I need to make things right. Should I call the IRS and throw myself at their mercy or visit a tax lawyer first? I don't have any documentation for those years either, and I know I would probably need it. (Example - the IRS used to double-count rent I received from rental property, and I dont have the 1099s to prove it now...)
I don't know what alternatives I have, if any, because I truly fear not getting treated fairly (I used to get audited yearly before I "checked out"). My finances, and back taxes, are a complete mess (I didn't pay on any credit cards or loans for 6 years either). I visited the CCCS about my consumer debt and have a manageable plan to pay that off, but that is not with the IRS "wildcard" and the payments I may owe to them. I have no idea where to even begin to get my financial life back in order. Where should I begin?
