No penalty..but the return may be considered incomplete and not filed...which could cause late filing penalties and interest to be charged.
Not sure there is a penalty. However, it could tie up your tax return for a while until the IRS straightens it out. May have to refile a corrected tax return.
Filing a past due return may not be as difficult as you think. Taxpayers should file all tax returns that are due, regardless of whether or not full payment can be made with the return. Depending on an individual's circumstances, a taxpayer filing late may qualify for a payment plan. All payment plans require continued compliance with all filing and payment responsibilities after the plan is approved. However, full payment of taxes saves you money.
For federal taxes, penalties and interest start accumulating on April 16. But the IRS does not send bills for trivial amounts. Even if you cannot pay the full amount (or cannot pay at all), get your return filed by April 15. (Or at least get an extension filed by April 15 and file the return by October 15 whether you can pay or not.) The penalty for not filing on time is TEN TIMES as much as the penalty for not paying but filing on time.
Usually none if you don't owe-otherwise there could be late fees tacked on.

Not filing your income taxes will have you facing a penalty by the IRS. According to legal zoom: "Well, you end up paying a penalty on the amount you owe at 5% per month (4.5 % for not filing and 0.5% for not paying). The total penalty for failure to file and pay can eventually add up to 47.5% (22.5% late filing, 25% late payment) of the tax owed. Interest, compounded daily, is also charged on any unpaid tax from the due date of the return until the date of payment" http://www.legalzoom.com/taxes/personal-taxes/what-are-penalties

First, it's criminal and people can and do go to jail for it. The penalty, which varies from State to State, generally would be a 100% negligence penalty PLUS all interest charges until collected. Obviously, you would be a suspect taxpayer and likey subject to scruitiny regularly. Also, understand there is no statute of limitations for unfiled returns. The SOL only starts (generally runs for 3 years or so), from the filing of a return.

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.
After the due date passes, penalties and interest will be added to the unpaid taxes. For federal income taxes, the interest rate is currently 4% annually, but the interest rate is adjusted every quarter. The penalty is 0.5% per month for each whole or partial month. Even if you can't pay your taxes, it is better to file your tax return on time. If you don't file your tax return on time, the penalty increases from 0.5% per month to 5.0% per month. Each state sets its own interest and penalties.
You will file a return. You will not get a refund (which is a refund of your overpayment) if you owe more than you have paid in through withholding and such - which is waht your payment is for - to make up for what you should have pre-paid. Depending on the amount of the underpayment and other factors, it is possible you will also owe a penalty and interest on that underpayment.
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.
Penalties. For each whole or part month a return is not filed when required (disregarding any extensions of the if you have any questions. filing deadline), there is a failure-to-file penalty of 5% of the unpaid tax due with that return. The maximum penalty is generally 25% of the tax due. Also, for each whole or part month the tax is paid late (disregarding any extensions of the payment deadline), there is a failure-to-pay penalty of 0.5% per month of the amount of tax. For individual filers only, the failure-to-pay penalty is reduced from 0.5% per month to 0.25% per month if an installment agreement is in effect. You must have filed your return on or before the due date of the return to qualify for the reduced penalty. The maximum amount of the failure-to-pay penalty is also 25% of the tax due. If both penalties apply in any month, the failure-to-file penalty is reduced by the amount of the failure-to-pay penalty. The penalties will not be charged if you have a reasonable cause for failing to file or pay. If you receive a penalty notice, you can provide an explanation of why you believe reasonable cause exists.
