Unfiled Tax Returns & Back Tax Returns: CT Tax Attorney Help
Tax Representation Done Right
If your company is struggling with unfiled business tax returns, taking swift action with an experienced attorney is critical to avoid severe IRS enforcement. Unfiled tax returns and back tax returns can quickly turn into the largest tax debt the IRS can legally charge you. However, if you have unfiled returns for one or more years, our CT tax attorneys and CPAs can help you file past-due returns, negotiate with the IRS, and reduce what you owe. Therefore, contact us today for a free Zoom consult.
Does the IRS Know I Have Unfiled Business Tax Returns?
Yes — simply not receiving a notice does not mean the IRS is unaware. Many owners wait, hoping the IRS will not notice their missing forms. Unfortunately, that hope is misplaced. The IRS will eventually figure out what you owe on its own. As a result, it will send you a steep bill.
In fact, the IRS can legally file your tax forms for you if you delay. That automatic filing creates the highest tax debt possible. Because of this, the better move is to file your returns late, run your own math, and handle the problem now. Waiting for an IRS notice often means facing a lien or bank levy later. That outcome is far worse than filing back taxes yourself.

Is It Too Late to File Back Business Tax Returns?
The standard rule of thumb for late returns is three years. However, that rule does not apply to unfiled returns. The IRS has no time limit on unfiled tax returns and can assess back taxes indefinitely.
Ultimately, you have two choices. You can wait for an IRS notice, which usually arrives as a lien or levy on your bank accounts or property. Alternatively, you can contact us now. Our CT tax attorneys and CPAs will help you choose the right course of action. If the IRS has already filed a Substitute for Return on your behalf, see our IRS Tax Audit practice-area page for next steps.
