Prior-Year & Amended Returns
Several years unfiled, a missed 1099, or a credit you never claimed: we file the missing years, amend with Form 1040-X and talk to the IRS about the penalties.
What is included
- Missing returns for prior years, using IRS wage and income transcripts
- Amended federal returns (Form 1040-X) and state amendments
- Claims for refunds within the three-year window
- Penalty relief requests once the returns are filed
- Coordination with foreign reporting catch-up when accounts were missed
Start with the transcripts
We pull your IRS transcripts to see what the IRS already knows, then rebuild each missing year so the numbers match. Filing before the IRS contacts you almost always costs less.
Common questions
How far back can I claim a refund?
Generally within three years of the original due date (including extensions) of the return.
I also missed foreign account reporting.
That is handled together with the returns; see our Streamlined (SFOP/SDOP) service.
