Waiting Usually Costs More
Penalties and interest keep growing on unpaid balances, and refunds don't wait forever.
To claim a refund. After that, the IRS keeps your money for good.
Failure-to-file penalty: 5% of unpaid tax per month, up to 25%, plus interest.
The IRS generally expects the last six years filed to consider you in good standing.
Every Situation, Sorted Out
Whatever got you behind, we've seen it before.
Multiple Missed Years
We prepare each past-due year in the right order and file them together.
Missing W-2s & 1099s
Lost your forms? We request your IRS wage and income transcripts to rebuild each year.
IRS or FTB Letters
Got a notice demanding a return? We respond and file before it escalates.
Substitute for Return (SFR)
If the IRS filed for you, it likely overstated your tax. Filing your own return can lower the bill.
Self-Employed & Business
1099 income, gig work, or a small business with no records? We help reconstruct income and expenses.
Can't Pay the Balance
Once you're filed, we can set up a payment plan or review other relief options.
