Can I get a fine and not be informed?

I just realized I have to pay a fine I was never informed about.

A fine? From the IRS? Did you not file a return or not pay enough during the year?

If you are talking about interest and penalties for failure to file or for an underpayment penalty, yes, you can get one, but they would inform you by mail. If you never received the letter, you can contact the IRS at 800-829-1040 to request more information on what exactly the fees or penalties are for.
