Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.—How do I file tax returns when I have lost my records?

File tax returns in Chandler AZ

It is not uncommon for Chandler AZ clients who have not filed for several years to have lost records due to moving, or a flood or a break in, or other reasons.  All is not lost if you have lost your records.  Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. (near Chandler AZ) will be able to get all of your records that have been reported to the IRS.  Once you know your income items then you have a good idea of where to start with your deductions.  Some deductions such as home mortgage interest deductions are reported to the IRS.  Bank records can be searched on line or ordered if necessary.  Many deductions can be substantiated as a natural cost of doing business—i.e. fuel if you are a truck driver.

If you have tax returns from prior years that need to be filed and your records are lost or incomplete, you need professional assistance from Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.  Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. offers a free consultation and can be reached at 480-926-9300. Often times it is best to not fight the IRS alone and to go in with proper experienced representation.

Melissa is someone who hired Scott as her Power of Attorney to file her tax returns in Chandler AZ. A few of her tax years were already filed but were filed incorrectly misreporting income. Because of this error, the IRS initiated an audit and assessed her over $10,000 in additional taxes owed. Scott Allen E.A. was able to research the matter and advised her of preparing an amended tax return in protest to what the IRS did.  They did just that and as you can see from the approval notice below that it reduced what she owes the IRS by $5,000. After getting this all corrected for her they are now negotiating her IRS debt into one low payment plan settlement.

Do I need an Arizona IRS Tax Attorney to file back tax returns?

No, filing delinquent tax returns is not a legal matter and shouldn’t require hiring an Arizona IRS Tax Attorney.  Consider Hiring Scott Allen E.A. instead. However, you should be aware of some of the negative consequences of filing back tax returns:

  • After three years past the due date, if you have a refund, it is lost and cannot be applied towards any balances due.
  • The IRS has a 10 year statute of limitations in which to collect on assessed taxes.  However, the statute does not start until your returns have been filed and assessed.
  • If you refuse to file back tax returns there can be legal consequences—but even an Arizona IRS Tax Attorney is not going to be able to get the IRS to agree to not filing a back tax return.
  • If you have not filed for a few years the IRS will file a Substitute for Return (SFR) which is prepared in the most negative way possible.  If this has already occurred, it can be corrected by filing a correct return at the Service Center that prepared the SFR.
  • The longer you wait to file a delinquent return the more penalties and interest will be added to the tax due.  If you have a refund, there will be no penalties or interest added.
  • You cannot qualify for any IRS settlement programs until you are in compliance with filing all of your back tax returns.

Scott Allen E.A. can be reached for a free consultation to discuss filing your back tax returns at 480-926-9300.  Scott has filed many SFR protests that have reduced the tax liability as well as the interest and penalties. He will make today a great day for you.

Below is a recent example of Scott Allen E.A. properly representing a taxpayer. Kathleen was several years behind on her taxes and Scott was able to assist in her getting those returns prepared and all caught up. Once she was filing compliant a payment plan negotiation took place. Her $100,000+ IRS debt was settled into one low monthly payment plan of $508 per month. How about that!

We are Mesa Arizona’s Top IRS Problem Solvers to Avoid Criminal Punishment

Scott Allen EA of Mesa Arizona’s Tax Debt Advisors

Let’s start out with what is true and what is false in this area.  What is false is more important for you to remember than what is true.  That’s because most web sites scare you with what is false rather than helping you by reducing your stress level with what is true.

Truth—If you fail to file a tax return you can be punished with one year in jail for each year you did not file.

Falsehood—In 44 years, we have never seen this happen once to one of our clients or anyone else.  All you have to do to avoid criminal prosecution is file your Mesa Arizona back tax returns.  The IRS criminal cases that you hear about on the news are due to Arizona taxpayers refusing to file or filing fraudulent tax returns.

Failing to file a return is like a bad parking ticket.  It is not a hit and run crime where you will go to prison.  It is important that you work with an IRS Resolution Specialist in Arizona like Scott Allen E.A. who will tell you the truth and not try to scare or intimidate you into retaining his services.  Tax Debt Advisors offers a free initial consultation and you can schedule your appointment with Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300.  You will only work with Scott.  He does 100% of your IRS resolution work.

Here is an IRS Notice CP21A showing an adjustment made on a back tax return for a client. Scott Allen EA filed an amendment to correct the filing status that was done incorrectly by a previous preparer. Correcting this before negotiating a payment plan was important to do. As you can see it saved the client over $2,200 in back taxes owed.

Do I need an Arizona IRS Attorney when I can’t pay what I owe the IRS?

Settle the IRS without using an Arizona IRS Attorney

No, your inability to pay the IRS is not a legal matter.  What you do need is a highly trained tax professional.  Most clients that owe the IRS will have a problem or inability to pay what the IRS says they owe them before the debt is fully paid off.  Some of the options available include:

  • Determine if you qualify for a non-collectible status.
  • Determine if you qualify for an Offer in Compromise.
  • Determine if you qualify to have your tax liability discharged in a bankruptcy.
  • Determine if any of your interest or penalties can be abated.
  • Determine if you should amend a previously filed tax return.
  • Determine if you should request an audit reconsideration on a return that was audited—especially if you did not attend the audit and were denied all of your legitimate deductions.
  • Determine if you qualify for a reduction in your monthly IRS Installment Arrangement.

All of these options should be considered if you cannot pay the IRS what you owe.  Scott Allen E.A. of Arizona is well versed in all of these IRS procedures and is available for a free consultation.  He can be reached at 480-926-9300.

Tempe AZ Tax Debt Advisors—What do I do if I get an IRS 30 day Non-Filer Letter?

Tempe AZ Tax Debt Advisors

This is not a serious letter but the implications may be serious. Within 30 days you need to file the requested return(s). If you owe taxes from the unfiled returns, then an IRS settlement needs to be entered into. If you do not file a return within 30 days the IRS will eventually file a substitute for return, assess you a tax liability and then be in a position to levy your bank accounts or garnish your wages if you continue to ignore future letters.

Tax Debt Advisors near Tempe Arizona has the experience to respond to this letter by filing your tax return(s) and if you owe, negotiate a settlement with the IRS. Tax Debt Advisors has settled over 113,000 IRS debts since 1977. Tax Debt Advisors offers a free initial consultation and provides the most aggressive tax preparation allowed by law. Call 480-926-9300 to schedule an appointment. Work with a local company that you can meet with face to face. Don’t go about filing back tax returns with a company out of state that you cannot meet with. Remember, if the person you talk to or meet with isn’t the person preparing your back tax returns – find someone else.
