could I file my taxes after april 17th?

Question

could declare and file taxes from three previous years?
am i goin to be penalized for late taxes if i file late ?

Answer 1

if you owe tax for any of the 3 previous tax years you will be paying a failure to file penalty and interest on the tax due. If you are due a refund there is no penalty but you do not get interest paid to you. If you have not filed 2003 and was due a refund, it is too late now to get that refund, but not too late to file the return.

Answer 2

Yes, you can file after the 17th
Yes, you can file for the last 3 years

No, you will not necessarily be penalized.

If you owed money for any of the three years in question, it was due on April 15 (or 17 in some years), and you will be paying penalties and interest from that date.

If you are owed refunds from those years, you will simply get refund checks as you would have gotten if you had filed then (full refunds)

You'll have to contact the IRS to get the proper forms.

Answer 3

Yes, you can file late, and can file for farther back than three years if you didn't file then. If you owe for any year, you'll pay penalties and interest in addition to what you owed originally for that year. For any year where you have a refund coming, you won't be penalized, and as long as you file within three years of the original due date, you'll get your refund..

Answer 4

If you know you will be filing late, you must file an extension. You are now very late and yes you will pay a penalty. Most likely a large one.
