The first step to becoming compliant with the IRS is to file any delinquent tax returns. No matter your reason for not filing, the IRS will be unwilling to resolve any past issues until this is taken care of. The longer you wait to file, penalties and interest will continue to grow. There can be even more serious repercussions for failing to do so, possibly including jail time. Don’t put off filing your tax returns any longer. We can help give you peace of mind by making sure you are current on everything you are required to file.
