What is the name of your state? Colorado
My husband and I have not paid or filed income tax in the past 10 years. We would like to come clean with the IRS and file, but are afraid of the repercusions. We are self employed and have fallen on very hard times since 9/11. Before 9/11 we made very good money.
What exactly will the government do to us if we contact them about our back taxes? We haven't kept a lot of receipts, so that may be a problem for us. Will we lose our house? We don't have a lot of equity in it. Will we go to jail? We really don't have a lot of money right now, but would like to get this off of our backs sometime in the future.
