How long must you keep federal income tax returns?
ANSWER
The BIDaWIZ Team's Answer:
The general rule is seven years. The statute of limitations is three years,
from the date in which the tax return is filed. Thus, for most circumstances,
three years is sufficient. However, there are a few exceptions, in which the
statute of limitations is extended, for up to seven years.
