I tell you how to file your back taxes step-by-step, how many years back you can (and possibly should) file your back taxes, and more!\n\nThere are many consequences to not filing your tax return, and it's generally in your best interest to file your back taxes as soon as possible.  You should also be aware of the interest and penalties that accrue on back taxes because they can be significant, especially the penalties.  Thankfully, in this video, I cover how the penalties are calculated and how you can possibly get rid of them.  And even if you don't owe taxes, you still want to file to secure your previous year's tax refund.
