What will happen if I don't pay taxes?

Well... initially nothing will happen. Eventually, you will be called to the carpet by the IRS and things could get real ugly. I can certainly appreciate your wanting to protest the policies of our goverment (you are not the only one), but I assure you that breaking the law is not the way to do it.  In the long run it will only get you in big trouble (fines, penalties and possibly even jail) and at the end of the day your protest will not be heard and will not make a difference.  Find another way to protest... get more involved in the political process... raise awareness.\n\nGood luck.

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.

No, you will owe tax on them unless you have capital losses to balance them. Either way you have to file

If you are going to get a refund, there are no penalties or interest assessed.  The IRS actually pays you a relatively low rate of interest on the money they owe you.\n\nIf, however, you owe money, then the interest and penalties build up rather quickly.  Failure to pay is equal to .5% of the balance due per month that you pay late, up to 25% of the total balance due.  Failure to file is either 4.5% or 5% of the balance, again up to 25% (a minimum of $100).  Then, on top of that, you must pay interest.\n\nRegardless of whether you owe or are due a refund, I would file Form 4868 online to give you an extension to file your return.  While this won't stop interest and failure to pay penalties, it will help you avoid failure to file penalties, and gives you 4 extra months to file.

You will have to pay income taxes but not sales tax (although that will depend on your state).  Good luck.

You are required to file a return if you have income, whether you owe taxes or no.  The Government wants you to report income and THEY will decide if you owe taxes.  A tax return is not just a request for a "return", you report earnings on tax return and figure amount owed.  I'd plead ignorance and get in touch with IRS.at the nearest office.

It all depends on what you owe.  If you have a refund, there is no penalty.  Why?  Because the penalty is based on your unpaid tax and if you have a refund, you have no balance due, therefore no penalty.  If you owe, the penalty is approx 4.5% of the tax amount you owe after April 15, for each month or portion of the month that your return is late, regardless of when you actually pay the tax.  The penalty length goes up to 5 months, so the maximum penalty is about 22.5%.  The minimum penalty is $100.00 or 100% of the unpaid tax (Whichever is lower)

you will be charged with fraud, they will be deported and not allowed back into the USA and you will be fined and probably go to jail for a long time.  You will also be on an IRS watch list.  DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!

If the property deed said and or and your name was second you will have no taxes to pay. The property will just roll over.

There are no penalties or interest charges if you do not file your taxes by April 17, 2006 when you have a refund coming or due you.  You have three years to file that return or forfeit your right to the refund, so I guess that would be a repercussion.  If you don't file the return within 3 years of the due date, you lose your refund!

You.  If the employer did not pay taxes or withheld any from you, you are considered an independent contractor and should pay your own taxes.  If they paid for you, you would have received a W2 form from them.

Go to www.taxact.com.  They let you prepare your taxes free.  You can see what your return will be before you finish filing.  If you can't afford the amount you owe, the IRS will generally allow a payment plan; you'll end up paying more due to interest and fees, but you'll at least stay out of hot water with them.

Yes you will have to pay. It is not your primary residence. However, you could defer the taxes through a 1031 exchange and purchase a similar property and not pay taxes right away. This probably won't help you because you want to pay down your mortgage though.

If you don't pay the back taxes they will have to . Or get prove that all taxes are paid then take them to small claims court

You will not owe a penalty for not filing, but there is a statute of limitation that limits your time frame to receive a refund - check the website below for correct time frame.

Easiest way to avoid paying taxes is to make sure you put enough money into 401Ks (or retirement funds) and you donate to charities.  You realise bringing clothes to a donation site for helping of poor people is the same and you can use it as a tax write-off?  Look up a list of tax write-offs.\n\nHope you were looking for a serious answer!  Good luck ;)
