Tell them all your money is tied up in pork bellies and frozen orange juice and you would pay them but your only currency available is Krugerands.

Try to find something you can deduct your taxes with. Say you paid 28k in rent this month, and you can write half off. But seriously, I know a guy who deducts his rent per square footage.

Were clients submitting 1099's to you and you just didn't file them?
Curious, because I don't file things I don't get 1099's for.

thanks for the advice guys. my accountant did the taxes, and i will ask her to clarify things. THis was the result of 3 years of taxes that i avoided. I know i deserve it. i will not do this again.

(Jun 14 06, 07:44)well shit what did you expect? do you own a home? you could refinance for a low rate and borrow the money then freelance your ass off for a few months....

sucks for you. i was in the same boat. owed 14k for 2005 that's after paying quarterly.

Damn... sorry piper.
You can pay in installments, but at 14k that's a little over $1000 a month. Ouch.
Sorry man.

i'm pretty sure you can get on a payment plan. only that they can trace your bank account and if you have cash there, you can consider it gone.

Yeah, get it double double checked, could be a simple typo somewhere.
My dad had to pay almost 10k back couple of years ago, but he got an accountant to go over it all and it turned out he had to get almost 3k back instead.
never trust em..
