What Are Back Taxes?

Back taxes are unpaid taxes from previous tax years. This can happen for many reasons:

  • You failed to file a tax return
  • You underreported income
  • You made errors on your tax return
  • You lost your job or had financial hardship

  • Failure to File Penalty - 5% per month (up to 25%)Failure to File Penalty
  • Interest - Currently around 8% annually, compounded dailyInterest
  • Additional Penalties - For accuracy, fraud, or negligenceAdditional Penalties

⚠️ The Math is Scary

If you owe $10,000 in back taxes and wait 2 years, you could easily owe $15,000+ with penalties and interest. The longer you wait, the worse it gets. Don't delay - get help today.

IRS Collection Actions

If you ignore back taxes, the IRS will escalate collection actions:

1. IRS Notices and Letters

The IRS sends increasingly urgent notices. Don't ignore these - each notice brings you closer to aggressive collection.

2. Tax Liens

The IRS files a Notice of Federal Tax Lien, which becomes public record and damages your credit score. This makes it difficult to sell property or get loans.

3. Tax Levies

The IRS can seize:

  • Money from your bank accounts
  • Your wages (wage garnishment)
  • Your property and assets
  • Your social security benefits

4. Asset Seizure

In extreme cases, the IRS can seize and sell your property, vehicles, and other assets to satisfy tax debt.

Solutions for Back Taxes

You have several options to resolve back taxes. We help Victorville and Apple Valley residents explore:

Installment Agreement (Payment Plan)

Set up monthly payments to pay off your tax debt over time. We can negotiate:

  • Short-term payment plans (up to 120 days)
  • Long-term payment plans (up to 72 months)
  • Partial payment installment agreements

Offer in Compromise (OIC)

Settle your tax debt for less than you owe. The IRS accepts OICs when:

  • There's doubt about collectibility
  • There's doubt about liability
  • Collection would cause economic hardship

Currently Not Collectible (CNC) Status

If you can't afford to pay anything right now, we can request CNC status, which temporarily stops collection actions while you get back on your feet.

Penalty Abatement

We can request removal of penalties if you have reasonable cause, such as:

  • Death or serious illness
  • Natural disasters
  • IRS errors
  • First-time penalty abatement

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to pay back taxes?

The IRS has 10 years from the date of assessment to collect tax debt. However, this can be extended in certain situations. Don't assume the debt will expire - the IRS is persistent.

Can the IRS take my house?

Yes, the IRS can place a lien on your house and potentially seize it. However, this is usually a last resort. If you're proactive, we can prevent this from happening.

Will back taxes affect my credit?

Yes, once the IRS files a tax lien, it appears on your credit report and can significantly damage your credit score. Getting the lien released should be a priority.

Can I negotiate back taxes myself?

Technically yes, but it's not recommended. The IRS is a powerful government agency, and negotiating without experience often results in unfavorable outcomes. Professional representation dramatically improves your chances of success.

Anyone may arrange his affairs so that his taxes shall be as low as possible; he is not bound to choose that pattern which best pays the treasury. There is not even a patriotic duty to increase one's taxes. Over and over again the Courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible. Everyone does it, rich and poor alike and all do right, for nobody owes any public duty to pay more than the law demands.
