My husband and I have been nuts--we're now filing taxes after three years of not filing. We have calculated that we owe for 2005, have a refund coming for 2006, and owe for 2007. Questions:
1. Do we have to pay 2005 before the refund for 2006 comes? In other words, can we just file everything and ask for the 2006 refund to be applied to the 2005 bill and also the 2007 bill?
2. With the stimulus refund, we should break even (or thereabouts) all around. Will the IRS demand payment nonetheless?
3. Does the IRS keep easy-to-access records for previous filings? We've moved and I cannot find all of my records. I'd like to request my 2004 returns for comparison. Can I make a telephone or internet request to just get general info?
No. I will NEVER be so irresponsible--really afraid--again.
