3 years after you file your return or after the return is due, whichever comes later. If no return was filed for the year, the statute of limitations has not yet begun to run.

There is NO statute of limitations on unfiled returns. It goes on forever and is NEVER dischargeable in BK

Statute of Limitations on Federal Taxes


The statute of limitations on back federal taxes in the State of Texas is 10 years from the date the tax was assessed. Tax is usually assessed when the IRS receives your return. This means the IRS has 10 years from the date the tax was assessed to collect the tax. An exception to this rule would be if you filed for bankruptcy protection. In this case, the statute begins to run 6 months from the time the bankruptcy is dismissed.
