Every month you wait costs you more
Failure-to-file and failure-to-pay penalties, plus interest, keep adding up until you file your missing tax returns.
If you owe taxes
Filing sooner can help limit additional penalties and interest, even if you can’t pay everything immediately.
If you’re owed a refund
You generally have three years from the original filing deadline to claim it.
If you’re self-employed
Filing reports your self-employment income and may help you receive the Social Security credits you’ve earned.

File and move forward
Work through the years one at a time, oldest first, until you are back in good standing with the IRS.- Claim old refunds: If you’re owed a refund, you generally have 3 years to claim it.

- Signed by a tax professional: Nothing goes to the IRS until a Keeper tax pro has reviewed and signed it.
