Last year taxes i owe

[jer3557]

i owe money from last year, can i have that taken from this years return?

[RichardG · Accepted solution]

Yes, in fact the IRS will automatically withhold your back taxes, penalties and interest from your refund.  You'll receive a letter from the IRS explaining how much was taken out of your refund for back taxes.

Will you or can you be informed on the amount owed while in the process of filing?

Do you mean does it display in the corner of the screen like the refund amount?
