What happens when you spend 3 years without filing your income taxes? |
My daughter's father owes her about a year and a half in back child support and she's only 5. He purposely does not file his income taxes just so they cant garnish them and she cant get her money. I know he's not exempt from filing because he makes atleast 40k. What happens when you dont file your taxes for 3-4 years in a row? At what point does the IRS come looking for you? Is there a number you can call? If no tax is due on filing, there is no penalty. But after 3 years you forfeit the right to any refund of older tax. And if you owe tax, the statute of limitations never runs, and you can't file bankruptcy against it either (that statute of limitations runs only from date of filing). The IRS may never call; but then again they might. They are always helpful to nonfilers who resume filing. There may be penalties (and interest) if tax is due; but that is related to the amount of arrears and so could be small. They come before child support. Child support can be ordered irrespective of filing a tax return. The court, or child support agency, can help. Or a children's charity or local social services agency. Here's the IRS page on tax fraud reporting: http://www.irs.gov/compliance/enforcemen... And here's the address to write to: " http://www.irs.gov/compliance/enforcemen... "If you suspect or know of an individual or company that is not complying with the tax laws, you may report this activity by completing Form 3949-A. You may fill out Form 3949-A online, print it and mail it to: Internal Revenue Service Fresno, CA 93888 "If you do not wish to use Form 3949-A, you may send a letter to the address above. Please include the following information, if available: * Name and address of the person you are reporting * The taxpayer identification number (social security number for an individual or employer identification number for a business) * A brief description of the alleged violation, including how you became aware of or obtained the information * The years involved * The estimated dollar amount of any unreported income * Your name, address and daytime telephone number "Although you are not required to identify yourself, it is helpful to do so. Your identity can be kept confidential. You may also be entitled to a reward." His luck will not likely last forever. Your choices are to take him to court, civil or family, and provide info. and documentation on his work, employer, salary, etc. as much info as you can lay your hands on. Otherwise, you can call the IRS yourself and tell them to check him out and why and give them the info. to start looking at his employer's records, his bank records, etc.. They'll get in touch with him to follow up on why he has not filed, make him file, and fine him big timie. If they garnish his wages, their garnishment will probably take precedence over yours. Once they get their money, then you can garnish for yours. I say go for it. No child should be without. what a buttwipe he must be!fer gawd sakes contact the IRS and turn him in Just call the IRS in his city and give them his phone number. He will be quite screwed. But you will never see any of the money for your daughter. The IRS will probably bill him thousands and thousands of dollars. The interest on unpaid taxes is unbelievable. Yes, you can get in touch with them, you can also try irs.gov . I don't know when the IRS will come looking for someone who don't pay their taxes, but eventually they catch them. Many times they'll get put in jail for tax evasion. You may also recieve a reward from the IRS. Look them up on the internet, I'm sure that they'll have a hotline you can call. Be prepared to give information about your ex...his full name, address, telephone number, cell phone number, social security number (if you have it), his place of employment...ect. Best of luck to you........he deserves this for being a deadbeat dad. Turn him in to the IRS. If you are right & he owes you will get a finders fee from the IRS. Keep in mind you will also be audited. So as long as you are above board go for it. i believe its ok to file every 3 years-- unless your self employed then its every 3 months-- back child support is taken from any federal tax returns that he may receive and given to the child support services (comp controller) the i.r.s. can go back i believe 10 years on your income filings. i believe if you owe the i.r.s. they can usually confiscate land holdings- bank accounts- stocks- or anything of value you own-- they cannot take your tools that make you a living or a vehicle that you use for work. almost everything else is wide open for them-- also it cannot be discharged thru bankruptcy (child support) and this person will face the piper sooner or later. im not a lawyer and this is my opinion only |
