Your best bet is to make a payment plan with the irs. This way you can still go to your friends wedding, and won't get charge a pently for not filing.Make sure you change your W4 and get more taxes taking out.

It's not only the -amount- of income you earn that determines whether or not you have to file an income tax return. There are many factors. To see the requirements, follow the questionnaire at this link: http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96623,00.html\n\nRemember that even if you aren't required to file, sometimes it's in your best interest to file anyway, because you may be due a refund - sometimes much more than you think, if you qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit.

yes you do. go to IRS.GOV and in the keywords enter 940 and 941 instructions. It said that you still have to file even if you have no taxes withheld unless you are filing a final return. I hope this helps you!

Check at the library--they frequently hae access to that type of information. Also you probably don't have to file. You only have to file if your income is at a certain level. You may want to file though because you may be due a refund.

Absolutely!  Need a tax acc't or lawyer.  There are ways to lower the taxes.That money can't just show up in your bank acc't without the IRS reciving bank report...so go totax expert first.  Good Luck!

It depends on where you live. Look it up at IRS.GOV

No, your teenager *probably* doesn't need to file a return. However, you could go to the IRS website (see link below) and file for free through the Free File Alliance. This would *probably* allow him to get back his $9, and it's good practice (better to start learning about taxes before he needs to, rather than waiting until it's too late).

Do you need a form to file. They are at www.irs.gov\nIf you need a copy of an old 1040, you have to request a copy from the IRS and pay a fee

You usually don't have to file taxes if your income is less than $8,200 single, $16,400 married. More than that, and Uncle Sam wants a return, even if you owe no tax. You might be able to exclude your income under for Foreign Earned Income Exclusion, but you still have to file the return.\n\nThe good news is that if you don't owe any tax and you do file the returns voluntarily, you won't owe penalties because the penalties are based on underpaid taxes.

If you meet the requirements to file you better file! All you need to do is get your tax documents together and file a 2001 tax return. You can do them yourself or pay a preparer to do them. Don't freak out. If you don't owe them money than you will not have fines and all that stuff, but I would do them cause once they open an audit they can go back for ever. I hope it works out for you

Go to IN.GOV It looks like you might if you are single with no dependents. Look under individual when you get to the web site. Then requirement to file. It tells you what the exemption amount is.

Depends on your circumstance.  Please read the link below to see how you apply to the 1099 and whether or not you need to file.

Yes, you have to file if you made more than $400 in self employment.  If you were paid on a 1099 as an independent contractor that would be considered self employment.  You have to pay self employment tax, which is social security and medicare, on your 1099 income.  File a 1040, and a schedule C for the 1099 income.  Self employment tax goes on Schedule SE.  Deduct the studnet loan interest on the 1040, line 33.

You have to file last years taxes and this year's taxes.  Unfortunately they won't be able to process this year's by e-file because you didn't do last years.  You have to file the paperway, but if you do it early like by this weekend, you could probably see a refund by early april.  They don't usually charge a fine for filing late but they won't pay interest either if they owe you money.

Income tax must be filed by Feb. 11th.  As far as why some folks can not e-file well that is a very in depth question with many answers.  From what my sister the payroll accountant tells me, if you are filing any one of the basic forms 1040, 1040ez ect. you can e-file.  However if you must file an extension or must include a lot of attachments you may be denied the e-file option

You still need to file, and would be better if you do it before they contact you (and if you had income that was reported, they will eventually, by which time you'll owe even more in interest and penalties.\n\nYou should always file even if you don't have the money to pay.  If you can't pay right away, they'll set up a payment plan, and yes, you'll be charged interest.\n\nYou're not going to be in some kind of major trouble, so don't worry about that.  Just go ahead and file, or contact the IRS and tell them your situation.  If they get your return without a check, they'll contact you to set up a plan to pay.
