What Are IRS Back Taxes?
Back taxes are unpaid taxes from previous years. These balances continue to grow with:
-
IRS failure-to-file penalties
-
Failure-to-pay penalties
-
Daily compounding interest
-
Additional collection fees
Over time, even a small original balance can turn into a much larger debt. The IRS will continue pursuing collection until the debt is paid or resolved through a qualifying tax relief program.
Why Taxpayers Fall Behind on Taxes
People fall behind for many legitimate reasons, including:
-
Job loss or reduced income
-
Medical hardship
-
Divorce or family crisis
-
Self-employment with inconsistent earnings
-
Confusion about IRS rules
-
Missed filing deadlines
-
Payroll tax issues for business owners
The IRS does not consider these “excuses,” but they do provide options for debt relief when financial hardship is proven.
Consequences of Ignoring IRS Back Taxes
When back taxes go unresolved, the IRS can take aggressive action, including:
-
Wage Garnishment — taking 25–50% of your paycheck
-
Bank Levies — freezing and seizing funds from your bank account
-
Tax Liens — damaging your credit and restricting property sales
-
Asset Seizure — in extreme cases, taking property
-
Refund Offsets — applying future refunds to your debt
-
Continuous Penalty Growth — adding thousands to your balance
Taking action early helps avoid these consequences — and often unlocks better relief options.
