Just a friendly reminder. Has everyone filed their 2017 taxes?

You are 3 years early for those expecting a refund. Though, this is the last day to file your 2014 tax return for a refund.

Can't imagine not filing taxes for 3 years, but what about those who owe from 2014 or before?

You can get away with not filing for 3 three years if you overpay your taxes. The IRS will gladly hold your money for you without paying you any interest, hoping you don't file to collect your refund.

A friend of mine, who bought new cars with cash and paid off house mortgages within 5 years, used this method to build his savings account because he said he couldn't save money any other way.

Whatever works for you.

Actually they would pay interest back to the due date.

I never thought to ask him if the IRS paid him any interest but that would certainly be a pleasant surprise.
