How do you file for back taxes from incarceration?

how do I file for my refund from my time spent in prison (last 3 years)


When is the last day to file your taxes?

April 15 is the last day to file your taxes each year.


What tax form would file to correct a mistake on last years tax form?

You need to file a 1040X (amended). You have 3 years to file an amended return after your original filing.


When is the last day for filling taxes for 2013?

If you mean for filing your return for income earned in 2012 the normal date would be April 15, 2013 unless you file an extension which gives you until October 15, 2013. Remember that the extension is only an extension to file and not an extension to pay any taxes that may be due. If you do not pay the taxes due then interest and penalties for non-payment of taxes will be assessed. If you don't file your taxes or an extension by April 15, 2013 then you will be assessed penalties and interest for non-payment of taxes and for non-filing of the return on a timely manner.


What do I do if I missed the October 15 deadline for filing my taxes?

You are still required to file your return even if you missed the last deadline. I suggest that you file the return as soon as possible. If you owe additional taxes, you will be penalized and will pay interest on what you owe for not filing in a timely manner but it will only get worse. The penalties and interest are not too bad with interest rates as low as they are now. Even if you can't pay all that is due you still can stop some of the penalties by filing now. If you do not owe additional taxes you will not even have a penalty after October 15th. If you don't file the return the IRS will have no choice but to use the information they have on file to file the return for you. This means it will be filed as Single with dependents and no deductions. If you file it will probably be better than what they file in your place.
