You cannot pay it but it is very possible that the IRS will take the amount out any anticipated refund that you will be looking for.
Yes a tax return that was filed in the year 2008 would have been for the 2007 tax year income tax return.
October 15, 2008. After that date, both the return and any taxes due are late. If you are due a refund, there is no penalty.
Yes you can but it will have to be a paper income tax return and be mailed to the correct IRS address that will be on the last page of the 1040 instruction book that you are using for the 2008 income tax return
No. The confusion arises because you essentially are given a "second chance" to get the stimulus. In 2008 you received (or in some cases, didn't receive) a stimulus check based on the income, taxes, and number of children that you reported on your 2007 tax return (Form 1040/1040A/1040EZ). Because of low income or low taxes shown on their 2007 return, some people did not receive the maximum amount. Other people did not receive anything at all because someone could claim them as a dependent on their 2007 tax return. And some people did not receive credit for all of their children because the children were born in 2008. In 2009, you again calculate how much of a stimulus payment you are eligible to receive based ONLY on the information on your 2008 return. If this is more than the amount you already received, you get back the additional amount. If it is the same or less than the amount you already received, then you just forget about it and get to keep the difference.
Joint filers are both responsible for the entire tax bill. If the unpaid taxes are from a year that the couple filed jointly, the wife is fully responsible for any unpaid taxes unless she can meet the qualifications for innocent spouse relief. After the filing deadline, a joint return cannot be amended to separate returns. If there are unpaid taxes from 2008, the wife can still file a separate return for 2008. If a joint return has been filed for 2008, they have until April 15, 2009 to amend.
For 2008, that number was about $1.4M USD, exported to 29 countries.
You should have received a Form 1099-G showing the amount of taxes withheld.Enter the amount of federal taxes withheld on 2008 Form 1040 line 62.If you had other taxes withheld, add them all together and enter the total on line 62.
If you mean paid federal taxes for a prior year...there is nothing to report...that isn't a deduction regardless if paid on time or not. If you paid State taxes in a different year, that would normally be deductible in the year actually paid for Federal tax purposes.

Prior year income tax returns CAN NOT FILED ONLINE to the IRS. You will have to complete the 2008 income tax return and mail it to the correct IRS address.
Purchasing a house is not tax-deductible.You can deduct mortgage interest (which you do not have) and property taxes. If you received a property tax credit from the seller, which appears on the settlement sheet from your closing, you must net that against any taxes you paid during 2007. If there was any credit for taxes due in 2008, net that portion of the credit against property taxes you pay in 2008 to figure your deductible portion.
