Back Taxes Owed

You have filed your returns but didn’t have the money to pay what you owed. You may think, “Oh well, I will catch up next year.” Before you know it, you find yourself several years in arrears and suddenly you receive a notice from the IRS which states that you owe three or four times the original amount. This can be very overwhelming, but don’t panic. There are things you can do to fix this.

What Can I Do About It?
It’s truly amazing how fast tax penalties and interest add up. If you didn’t have the money to pay your taxes before, it’s probably unlikely that you’ll have the money to pay your taxes and your back taxes now. You’re at a loss for what to do. Often, it seems like you only have a couple of choices. Either you can write a big fat check and pay the full amount, including interest and penalties, or you can just keep ignoring them while the penalties and interest keep piling up. Neither of these scenarios is ideal. So what can you do instead?
