The most common questions of non filers are:
How many years do I file? (depends)
Do I need to file all of them? (not usually)
What if I owe? (you can make a settlement perhaps or see below).
Will I go to jail? (almost never - filing fixes the problem)
Am I stirring up a major bee's nest by having you contact them? (WATAX will post the Power of Attorney and look up your file online - stealthily without triggering scrutiny).
