Tax
What is the statute of limitations on taxes?
Quick Answer
The IRS generally has 3 years from the filing date to assess additional tax. The window stretches to 6 years if you understated income by more than 25%, and is indefinite for fraud or unfiled returns. Refund claims must be filed within 3 years.
