If you have unfiled tax returns, right NOW is the best time to file them. Why? Check out this blog post for all the convincing reasons: www.fileoldtaxreturns.com/2020/08/14/best-time-to-file-old-taxes-now/
Just saw this for some reason. But if YOU received a 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC, then generally speaking, you will be completing a Schedule C when your file your tax return.
Good video. Many folks may also receive a refund when filing back taxes. It's certainly prudent to file as soon as possible to avoid additional interest and penalties.
True. And they only have 3 years to claim the refund or lose it to the US Government. 2018 refunds go bye-bye on 4/15/22 so we should all keep that in mind. Thanks for watching and commenting! 😁

Love your videos! They are so informative and easy to understand for someone like me who is new to filing taxes. I just did my 2020 taxes using 2020 TurboTax software. Is filing by mail my only option at this point?
Thanks for watching and the comment. I would call TurboTax support and see if they offer e-filing for 2020. However, my experience is that the only option at this time is to mail the return. If that is the case, then you can learn how to do that via this video: th-cam.com/video/q3WPQ2pcayI/w-d-xo.html Good luck and let us know if you have any other questions. 😁
Probably just did the returns online and then mailed them . You could do the same. Turbo tax has an option to access prior year software versions on their site.
Well, that depends on if it is a year that can be e-filed. And that comes down to how is filing (you or a professional) and if you're within the 3 year window to file. Us professionals can e-file 2020 but you might not be able to if your software doesn't allow it.

Currently the only years the IRS will issue refunds for are 2021, 2022 and 2023. If the return is a 2020 or prior year, the IRS will not send the money. Hope that helps clarify. Thanks for watching and the comment!
@@truthbetold6038 For 2020? Generally no. It’s called the Refund Statute Expiration Date or RSED. It’s 3 years. You’d have to have a really compelling reason for the RSED to have been extended. You can Google it to see those reasons. Thanks for the comment!
Unfortunately not. The IRS just launched it's program called Direct File that allows people in 12 states to file their 2023 taxes for free. Then there is the IRS VITA and Free File programs that offer free tax prep for 2023 returns. None of these allow for filing old years. If you need to file an old year you would have to either get the software, forms or engage in a service provider who could do an older year.
What if i have absolutely no records and have a seizure history and dont remember alot of shit chronologically? Where do even begin? Im missing years here n there for the past decade +. Any ideas?
Totally get that. You start by doing a transcript analysis. So you will get account transcripts going back as far as you can. Consumers can go back 10 years. We can go back to 1999. It’ll show you all the years that you are filed and unfiled for. You can start there. Thanks for watching and the comment!
You are amazing! Thank you for this video, I now feel like I have some hope to get this 'monkey' off my back. I am a new subscriber to your channel; again, thank you for your help!
Well thank you for watching! Dealing with back taxes can be scary, but from someone who deals with it all the time, know that it can be put behind one. Just take the steps outlined and it will be okay. If you need help, we’re here for you. Just reach out via the contact info in the description of the video. Thanks for the comment and sub! 😁
I need to do 2019, 2020, 2021 but I do not have the Turbo Tax discs for those years. I think I have the disc for 2021, but need to do immediately 2019. Anyone have a Turbo tax I can borrow?
Thanks for watching and the comment. We don’t have any Turbo Tax CDs, but we do have a service that can file back tax returns if needed/interested. Check the description of the video for more info.
I Lost all my documents for 2019 tax filing return and receive letter saying that I need to report on my wages and the exact dates on everything 😭😭 how do I do that
Thanks for watching in the comment. Basically you need to file a tax return using the transcripts. Check out our other video on obtaining unmasked transcripts. If you need help with actually filing returns, reach out to us via the contact information of this video. 😉😁
If you actually need the 2020 from to report income to an independent contractor, you'll actually need to order it from the IRS. Visit www.irs.gov/businesses/online-ordering-for-information-returns-and-employer-returns and check out the info under "Need to Find a Product or Place a Telephone Order?" Thanks for watching and the comment! 😄
Thanks for watching and the comment. Generally speaking not filing a return for a prior year doesn’t necessarily impact getting your refund for the current year. However, if there are multiple unfiled prior years or the IRS can see that there are potentially balances on those years, they may hold up issuing the refund for the current year until those returns are filed. Hope that helps! 😁
On the Form 4506-T (Rev March 2021) you would want to select Line 8 "Form W-2, Form 1099 series, Form 1098 series, or Form 5498 series transcript." as this will cause them to send you all the wage related items for the year you request on line 9. Much faster to get online if you request it using the IRS Get Transcript Tool: www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript Takes about 15 minutes to sign up and get verified and then access is instantaneous. Good luck! 😁
i filed my 2022 return through OLT about a month ago but when i go to check in on the irs website it says that my info doesn’t match their records(like it was never filed), what does that mean?
Typically it means that the IRS system just doesn’t have the data that you provided. How were the returns filed? Mailed in (paper) or electronically filed? That will help with the next response.

Thanks for watching and the comment. If you are using a preparer then they can e-file it. If you are doing it you will need to mail it. This video talks about e-file th-cam.com/video/XLEFJAej_UE/w-d-xo.html and this one talks about how to mail it th-cam.com/video/q3WPQ2pcayI/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching and the comment! 😁
I got my wage and income transcript but it doesn't have my employers FED ID on it. It is starred out. Some of these businesses are no longer in business. How do I get a federal ID to complete my taxes?
So, the transcript you have is called "redacted" and it's so people don't do identity theft - they can't see your SSN or any EINs. IF you are trying to e-file a current year return, then you need unredacted. Check out this link on the IRS site and look at the section "Faxing and third-party mailings" as that talks about how to use Form 4506-T to get those: www.irs.gov/individuals/about-the-new-tax-transcript-faqs Now, if you are filing an old return (in this case 2019 or older) then you don't need the EIN if YOU are preparing the returns. The returns can't be e-filed so you would have to mail them in to the IRS anyway. They can see who you worked for as they have the same transcript but unredacted. The EIN is only needed if you're going to e-file and that is only available to the last 3 years for tax professionals and the current year (TY 2020) if you're using individual software. Hope this helps. Thanks for the comment and watching! 😁
Sorry, you'll have to be a little more specific. What form or schedule are you referring to? Form 1040 line 8 in 2023 is "additional income from Schedule 1, line 10." Once I know that info, I can give a good response. Thanks!
DON’T BE SCURRED! 🤣 The possibility of there being a penalty? 100% The probability? 🤷🏾♂️ While I don't work for the IRS, you have to think there is some slack built into the system. While it was midnight in NY it was still 8PM in CA. So... They might not penalize you for filing or paying late. But if they do: 1) it was only by one day so the penalties for paying late would be minimal and 2) you can always request that they forgive (abate) the penalties by replying to the letter. You can learn more about penalties from our blog post: fileoldtaxreturns.com/2015/05/10/understanding-irs-penalties/ Congrats on getting filed and Happy Belated Tax Day! 😁😉
Thanks for the comment. To get missing records, you would want to get a 2018 Wage & Income Transcript from the IRS. It will show you who paid you money (income, interest, dividends, etc) so that you can file your return. It won’t have state level income and withholdings, but you will know who paid you and you can reach out to them for replacement forms if you need to file the state return. Our video will tell you how to create an online IRS account and get your transcripts in under 15 minutes (if all goes well with the identity verification step): th-cam.com/video/40I9A4jeuYA/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps! 😉
Thanks for watching and the comment. Are you stating that you need to file two years? If so, what years do you need to file? Let us know and we can tell you the options to file those years. 😁
Thanks for watching and the comment. The quickest way to e-file is to use a professional that can do so. We mention our service in the description of the video, and yes, we can file 2019. Other than that, your next option is to mail it. We talk about how to do that in our video: th-cam.com/video/q3WPQ2pcayI/w-d-xo.html But be advised that mail is REALLY messed up at the IRS now. So even if sent, it will be weeks (realistically months) for them to process it as they have some 9 million unprocessed mail returns from 2020-2021. Hope that helps! 😁👍🏾
If you're doing the filing then yes, you would have to mail it. This video talks about that: th-cam.com/video/q3WPQ2pcayI/w-d-xo.html If we're doing it, we can e-file 2020. This video talks about the options for e-filing: th-cam.com/video/XLEFJAej_UE/w-d-xo.html So if you're doing it then yes, you would have to complete the return and then mail it to the IRS. Thanks for watching and the comment! 😁
Nope, use the IRS address for the state in which you live and if you are mailing a payment or not: www.irs.gov/filing/where-to-file-addresses-for-taxpayers-and-tax-professionals-filing-form-1040
Check out this IRS site www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/prior-year and look at the Popular Prior Year Forms, Instructions & Publications section. 2018 is listed and you would need Form 1040. Would have to be done by hand which is a pain. If you want a service to do it, then you can check out ours: fileoldtaxreturns.com/ Good luck! 😉
You can always request it. But if a return was not filed the transcript will just state “no tax return filed” so not sure how useful that is. Unless you need proof that you did not file! 😉. Hope that helps.
We surely can. Just send us an email using the address that's in the description of the video or call the office. From now until 4/15 we're open from 9:30AM - 7PM CST during the week and 9AM - 5PM on Saturdays. We're open year round and switch to off season hours from 4/16 - 12/31.

That's about market rate for that many years. Now, the "better way" is to do them for free by just downloading the forms from www.irs.gov - but who REALLY wants to prepare taxes by hand? 😉
Like I "really" want to talk to the IRS. Nah...Imma just keep ignoring these IRS letters with the green USPS certified lables on them. Maybe they'll just go away or forget about 'lil ol me? NOPE! 🤣
Thanks for watching and the comment. Glad you found it helpful. Make sure you check out our other videos and our back tax course below in the description. 😁
Forgive me if this question was previously answered in the video. And this is in regards to my 2020 Taxes. Yes, I am ashamed 🥲 So, I used Tax Slayer to help aid me in coming to terms with what Taxes I owe and will receive. As expected, I cannot e-file, but I received a sum no less. The only deductions I have seen, after submitting my W-2, are the State taxes that I owe. The question: is this the extent of what I owe or is there something that I am missing? Do I need to look further to determine if I do or do not owe any late penalties?
I don't know if this help, but I have received the following notification: In accordance with the Presidential Memorandum issued on August 8, 2020, Social Security taxes were not withheld from your pay between September 1, 2020, and December 31, 2020. The deferred Social Security taxes have since been collected from your pay between January 2021 and December 2021. Tax Filing and W-2C Reporting: As a result of the OASDI taxes deferred in 2020, corrected W-2s (W-2Cs) are required for tax year 2020 correcting Box 4 to report the additional Social Security Tax withheld from your pay. Thank you for your time. I know I've sent you a Novel.
Okay so it's a little hard to understand what is actually going on. But we'll say this; once the return is filed if there was an amount owed, you will get a letter from the IRS indicating the amount owed plus any penalties and interest. So...we say just wait for the letter from the IRS after they receive and process the return. If there was a refund due, then there are no penalties and interest for filing late. Hope this helps!
My return was flagged in 2020. When i tried to get it taken care of, the pandemic made it impossible. So i havent even tried to file a income tax return since. I know i wont get paid for 2020. But will i still get a refund for 2021 2022 & 2023? I have the wage & income transcripts for all of those years. Thanks
If you file before the deadline (3 years from original due date), are owed a refund, and don’t have any outstanding Federal or government entity debt, then they should issue the refund. 2021-2023 are still active years to claim refunds as of today. 2020 is a lost year unfortunately. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and the comment! 😁

If you need to file an old year you would have to either get the software, forms or engage in a service provider who could do an older year.
@@WilsonRogersCompanyInc Rats. Okay, thank you 🙂
What if i have absolutely no records and have a seizure history and dont remember alot of shit chronologically? Where do even begin? Im missing years here n there for the past decade +. Any ideas?
Totally get that. You start by doing a transcript analysis. So you will get account transcripts going back as far as you can.
Consumers can go back 10 years. We can go back to 1999. It’ll show you all the years that you are filed and unfiled for. You can start there.
Thanks for watching and the comment!
You are amazing! Thank you for this video, I now feel like I have some hope to get this 'monkey' off my back. I am a new subscriber to your channel; again, thank you for your help!
Well thank you for watching! Dealing with back taxes can be scary, but from someone who deals with it all the time, know that it can be put behind one.
Just take the steps outlined and it will be okay. If you need help, we’re here for you. Just reach out via the contact info in the description of the video.
Thanks for the comment and sub! 😁
I need to do 2019, 2020, 2021 but I do not have the Turbo Tax discs for those years. I think I have the disc for 2021, but need to do immediately 2019. Anyone have a Turbo tax I can borrow?
Thanks for watching and the comment. We don’t have any Turbo Tax CDs, but we do have a service that can file back tax returns if needed/interested. Check the description of the video for more info.
I Lost all my documents for 2019 tax filing return and receive letter saying that I need to report on my wages and the exact dates on everything 😭😭 how do I do that
Thanks for watching in the comment. Basically you need to file a tax return using the transcripts. Check out our other video on obtaining unmasked transcripts.
If you need help with actually filing returns, reach out to us via the contact information of this video. 😉😁
Hi what papers do I need for 2020 1099 nec
If you actually need the 2020 from to report income to an independent contractor, you'll actually need to order it from the IRS. Visit www.irs.gov/businesses/online-ordering-for-information-returns-and-employer-returns and check out the info under "Need to Find a Product or Place a Telephone Order?" Thanks for watching and the comment! 😄
Is not reporting on my old tax filing gonna make me not get my return for 2022??
Thanks for watching and the comment. Generally speaking not filing a return for a prior year doesn’t necessarily impact getting your refund for the current year.
However, if there are multiple unfiled prior years or the IRS can see that there are potentially balances on those years, they may hold up issuing the refund for the current year until those returns are filed.
Hope that helps! 😁
I need my 2019 1099misc so I can file for 2019. I’m using 4506-t but which box do I check for my copy?
On the Form 4506-T (Rev March 2021) you would want to select Line 8 "Form W-2, Form 1099 series, Form 1098 series, or Form 5498 series transcript." as this will cause them to send you all the wage related items for the year you request on line 9.
Much faster to get online if you request it using the IRS Get Transcript Tool: www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript Takes about 15 minutes to sign up and get verified and then access is instantaneous. Good luck! 😁
@@WilsonRogersCompanyInc thank you!
i filed my 2022 return through OLT about a month ago but when i go to check in on the irs website it says that my info doesn’t match their records(like it was never filed), what does that mean?
Typically it means that the IRS system just doesn’t have the data that you provided. How were the returns filed? Mailed in (paper) or electronically filed? That will help with the next response.

How can I submit my 2020 tax return?
Thanks for watching and the comment. If you are using a preparer then they can e-file it. If you are doing it you will need to mail it. This video talks about e-file th-cam.com/video/XLEFJAej_UE/w-d-xo.html and this one talks about how to mail it th-cam.com/video/q3WPQ2pcayI/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching and the comment! 😁
I got my wage and income transcript but it doesn't have my employers FED ID on it. It is starred out. Some of these businesses are no longer in business. How do I get a federal ID to complete my taxes?
So, the transcript you have is called "redacted" and it's so people don't do identity theft - they can't see your SSN or any EINs. IF you are trying to e-file a current year return, then you need unredacted. Check out this link on the IRS site and look at the section "Faxing and third-party mailings" as that talks about how to use Form 4506-T to get those: www.irs.gov/individuals/about-the-new-tax-transcript-faqs
Now, if you are filing an old return (in this case 2019 or older) then you don't need the EIN if YOU are preparing the returns. The returns can't be e-filed so you would have to mail them in to the IRS anyway. They can see who you worked for as they have the same transcript but unredacted.
The EIN is only needed if you're going to e-file and that is only available to the last 3 years for tax professionals and the current year (TY 2020) if you're using individual software. Hope this helps. Thanks for the comment and watching! 😁
How do Iine 8 tax prior
Work
Sorry, you'll have to be a little more specific. What form or schedule are you referring to? Form 1040 line 8 in 2023 is "additional income from Schedule 1, line 10." Once I know that info, I can give a good response.
Thanks!
See other comment/request.
Hey.. Scary here! I filed 15 minutes late- but paid the tax balance of $18,000. What's the probability of me paying a penalty!?
DON’T BE SCURRED! 🤣 The possibility of there being a penalty? 100% The probability? 🤷🏾♂️ While I don't work for the IRS, you have to think there is some slack built into the system. While it was midnight in NY it was still 8PM in CA. So...
They might not penalize you for filing or paying late. But if they do: 1) it was only by one day so the penalties for paying late would be minimal and 2) you can always request that they forgive (abate) the penalties by replying to the letter. You can learn more about penalties from our blog post: fileoldtaxreturns.com/2015/05/10/understanding-irs-penalties/
Congrats on getting filed and Happy Belated Tax Day! 😁😉
If I have no paperwork to file for 2018, is the wages transcript what I need to complete this?
Thanks for the comment. To get missing records, you would want to get a 2018 Wage & Income Transcript from the IRS. It will show you who paid you money (income, interest, dividends, etc) so that you can file your return.
It won’t have state level income and withholdings, but you will know who paid you and you can reach out to them for replacement forms if you need to file the state return.
Our video will tell you how to create an online IRS account and get your transcripts in under 15 minutes (if all goes well with the identity verification step): th-cam.com/video/40I9A4jeuYA/w-d-xo.html
Hope that helps! 😉
It's only two years
Thanks for watching and the comment. Are you stating that you need to file two years? If so, what years do you need to file? Let us know and we can tell you the options to file those years. 😁
I finished my taxes with Taxact, however I cannot e-file for 2019. What is the quickest way to do so? Is mail my only option?
Thanks for watching and the comment. The quickest way to e-file is to use a professional that can do so. We mention our service in the description of the video, and yes, we can file 2019.
Other than that, your next option is to mail it. We talk about how to do that in our video: th-cam.com/video/q3WPQ2pcayI/w-d-xo.html
But be advised that mail is REALLY messed up at the IRS now. So even if sent, it will be weeks (realistically months) for them to process it as they have some 9 million unprocessed mail returns from 2020-2021.
Hope that helps! 😁👍🏾
I didn't file for 2020. Do I just download the form fill it up and mail to IRS? Can I send it electronically?
If you're doing the filing then yes, you would have to mail it. This video talks about that: th-cam.com/video/q3WPQ2pcayI/w-d-xo.html
If we're doing it, we can e-file 2020. This video talks about the options for e-filing: th-cam.com/video/XLEFJAej_UE/w-d-xo.html
So if you're doing it then yes, you would have to complete the return and then mail it to the IRS. Thanks for watching and the comment! 😁
@@WilsonRogersCompanyInc Thanks! Can I mail to any IRS office?
Nope, use the IRS address for the state in which you live and if you are mailing a payment or not: www.irs.gov/filing/where-to-file-addresses-for-taxpayers-and-tax-professionals-filing-form-1040
@@WilsonRogersCompanyInc Thanks man!!
I need to file my 2018 returns. I already have an IRS wages transcript. What form do I download for individual tax return on the IRS site?
Check out this IRS site www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/prior-year and look at the Popular Prior Year Forms, Instructions & Publications section. 2018 is listed and you would need Form 1040. Would have to be done by hand which is a pain. If you want a service to do it, then you can check out ours: fileoldtaxreturns.com/ Good luck! 😉
@Wilson Rogers &Company Inc. what’s the 2018 standard tax deduction for single filer?
Please I hope I could be get the answer
The PLUG!!!!!
Shameless? Yup! But the real question is, how many people have we helped get those back taxes filed for? 🧐🤣😉
Hi! Is it possible I can request a tax return transcript for the year of 2019 if I didn’t file taxes on that year!? Please help
You can always request it. But if a return was not filed the transcript will just state “no tax return filed” so not sure how useful that is. Unless you need proof that you did not file! 😉. Hope that helps.
And in our other video we tell you how to access your transcripts online if you want them: th-cam.com/video/40I9A4jeuYA/w-d-xo.html
@@WilsonRogersCompanyInc thank you so much !
Please help me
Please see other comment. 😁

Jackson Hewitt is trying to charge me $750 for 5 years of back taxes. Gotta be a better way.
That's about market rate for that many years. Now, the "better way" is to do them for free by just downloading the forms from www.irs.gov - but who REALLY wants to prepare taxes by hand? 😉
Just pick up ur mail
Like I "really" want to talk to the IRS. Nah...Imma just keep ignoring these IRS letters with the green USPS certified lables on them. Maybe they'll just go away or forget about 'lil ol me? NOPE! 🤣
wilson , get out of here,,,you did expaint anything , bs.
Umm, my name’s Jared. 🤷🏾♂️🤣🤣
This is amazing info
Thanks for watching and the comment. Glad you found it helpful. Make sure you check out our other videos and our back tax course below in the description. 😁
Forgive me if this question was previously answered in the video. And this is in regards to my 2020 Taxes. Yes, I am ashamed 🥲
So, I used Tax Slayer to help aid me in coming to terms with what Taxes I owe and will receive. As expected, I cannot e-file, but I received a sum no less. The only deductions I have seen, after submitting my W-2, are the State taxes that I owe.
The question: is this the extent of what I owe or is there something that I am missing? Do I need to look further to determine if I do or do not owe any late penalties?
I don't know if this help, but I have received the following notification:
In accordance with the Presidential Memorandum issued on August 8, 2020, Social Security taxes were not withheld from your pay between September 1, 2020, and December 31, 2020. The deferred Social Security taxes have since been collected from your pay between January 2021 and December 2021.
Tax Filing and W-2C Reporting:
As a result of the OASDI taxes deferred in 2020, corrected W-2s (W-2Cs) are required for tax year 2020 correcting Box 4 to report the additional Social Security Tax withheld from your pay.
Thank you for your time. I know I've sent you a Novel.
Okay so it's a little hard to understand what is actually going on. But we'll say this; once the return is filed if there was an amount owed, you will get a letter from the IRS indicating the amount owed plus any penalties and interest. So...we say just wait for the letter from the IRS after they receive and process the return.
If there was a refund due, then there are no penalties and interest for filing late. Hope this helps!
My return was flagged in 2020. When i tried to get it taken care of, the pandemic made it impossible. So i havent even tried to file a income tax return since. I know i wont get paid for 2020. But will i still get a refund for 2021 2022 & 2023? I have the wage & income transcripts for all of those years. Thanks
If you file before the deadline (3 years from original due date), are owed a refund, and don’t have any outstanding Federal or government entity debt, then they should issue the refund.
2021-2023 are still active years to claim refunds as of today. 2020 is a lost year unfortunately.
Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and the comment! 😁
