Extensions for filing your income tax return are due by the date that your return is due. Returns reporting 2009 income are due by April 15, 2010 in your tax year ended on December 31. To request an extension, you need to file Form 4868, Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File U.S. Income Tax Return. But an extension of time doesn't grant an extension of time to pay your tax liability. If you owe taxes, they're considered due this year by April 15.

No. All penalties with the IRS are based on a percentage of what you owe. If you don't owe anything, there is no penalty. You should be aware, however, that you only have three years from the date the return was originally due (including extensions) to claim a refund or else it is lost forever. So as of today (6/11/2008) you can only still get a refund on your 2005, 2006, and 2007 returns.

Generally, federal income tax returns for individuals are due by April 15. If April 15 falls on a weekend, then the deadline is extended to the next business day. Returns that aren't filed on time are called past due returns. Start by gathering together your records and information. Contact your present/previous employers and any other sources of income if you don't have that information. You can get copies of previous years' forms online at www.irs.gov/formspubs by clicking on 'Previous Years' and selecting the years and forms that you need. If you have any questions about what forms to use or if you're still missing income information for your past due returns, contact the IRS at 1-866-681-4271. You should file past due returns as promptly as possible to avoid having more interest and penalties assessed on your tax due, if you owe. If you've received a Notice of Deficiency from the IRS, be sure to send your completed past due returns to the IRS address on your notice. If you haven't received a Notice of Deficiency, get the correct address by calling the IRS at 1-866-681-4271. Past due returns are processed at specific (not all) Internal Revenue Service centers.
I have unfiled tax returns, what can I do?
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.
