how do you file taxes from last year?

Question

my friend didn't do his taxes last year how can he go about doing them i said go to h and r block... and if he does will he get a return? seriously it is a friend...

Answer 1

He can download last year's forms from irs.gov - if his return is not complicated, he can probably fill them out himself rather than pay someone to do them.

If he owes money, he'll be paying a penalty for filing late. If he has a refund coming, then there wouldn't be any penalty.

Answer 2

I hired a tax preparer to do this for me. Gathered up my W-2 forms and any other tax forms for 2004 (1099-INT forms and so on) and gave them to the accountant. As far as I can tell, it looks like the regular 1040 forms and Schedule A and so on forms that I would've used if I had filed on time. I will be getting money back but I had already known that which is why I hadn't gotten my act together enough to file my taxes earlier. However, if I had ended up owing more money in taxes, I would also get charged interest and owe even more. Some websites seem to be devoted to filing taxes for past years. This one says it'll let you try it out online first so your friend can see if he'll be getting a refund or not:

Answer 3

If, your friend work a job, they will give him a W-2 form and you will use that for tax purposes. and he can go online and fill out the tax forms or go www.hrblock.com or any CPA and let them fill it out. They will tell you how of refund who are getting back. I hope this helps. Good Luck!

Answer 4

H & R Block. How much did he make? If he made less than a certain amount he may not have to file.

Answer 5

I think it's pretty much the same as normal but he'll need a special form. Get on IRS.gov and find out.

Answer 6

yes, it should be fine, your friend should consult a tax agent.
