I'm filing 2004 tax returns, Please tell me that it's not to late to file.?


Is there a 3 year limit to filing back taxes?

The three year deadline applies to filing for a refund. If you are due a refund on your 2004 taxes, you must file by midnight tonight. If you owe, then the penalties and interest will just continue to accrue whether you file by tonight or not.

Well, if you need this information, it probably is not to late. The reason I say this is it appears that you have not been in the work force too long, therefore you probably will get a refund back.

Taxes is about uh 10% of your income after exemption and deduction. So look at how much your W-2 says it took out, well, you'll have a general idea.

Now go ahead and file, I do not know if you will be able to get in on the stimulus package. You really won't get it if you don't file.

Yes you can go back and amend your taxes for 3 years, but if you have not filed in any years prior to that they will make you file.

I don't believe you can file 2004 now. I am sure the time alloted to file back taxes is up to three years after they should have been filed if you have not filed them by April, 15 2008, because they should have been filed on or prior to April, 15 2005 then you cannot file.. You better do it today or count it up as a learning experience.......

I hate to tell you this, but your taxes for the 2004 tax year were due April 15, 2005.

You need to file the 2004 taxes as soon as possible to prevent any further penalties and interest accumulations.

The one good thing is the IRS will work with you to arrange a payment schedule if you owe any taxes.

If you get the 2004 return in today, you're cool. The IRS may ding you for late filing (especially if you owed them money), but they won't give you a really bad time.

See here on resources to file your back taxes online. You can file your 2004 return too.

You are correct. Tonight at midnight is the deadline to file your 2004 tax return. After that time it cannot be filed.
