First of all, just file your 2005 tax return! You can download the form off the IRS site and mail it in. Here is the link for 2005 forms http://www.irs.gov/formspubs/article/0,,id=158421,00.html You cannot efile a tax return from past years---only the current year. After you paper file your 2005 return (you may even get a refund and if that is the case you will not have to pay any fines or penalties) then just efile your 2006 return and you will be all caught up! You will not be in trouble if you do it right away and pay any money that you may owe. If you do owe and cannot pay right away, just ask for a payment plan. At any rate, just do it so you won't have to keep worrying about it! :)

You won't be if you file NOW ! I've worked in an IRS mailroom, and people file their taxes late all the time. There will probably be a late charge though. But it's best to get it out of the way. You have till the 17th to mail this years forms. It goes by the post mark. And there's actually people who look at the envelopes one by one to see if they're late or not !

I would go to your local IRS office and ask for a printout of W2 and 1099s they received for 2004. They have it on file. You will probably want to have a professional preparer complete the 1040 and other forms, though, the IRS income printouts are quite rough and can be difficult to read.

Depends on what you consider trouble. Will you get a bill from the IRS for taxes owed, without any deductions, plus accrued interest and penalties - yes, unless you file before you get it, which would be a very good idea.

You will be hearing from the IRS,take from someone who learned the hard way.Get an accountant and pay your taxes.If you have unpaid taxes on your record it ruins your credit.Plus if you have a bank account the IRS can take it.

It is better to not file at all than to file and chisel on your taxes. ;)
