No. Nor would you possibly want to, as the only thing that ccould really happen is it weould increase your tax! (The more income the more tax...even if each year you owed no tax, say because you income was 12K, 2 years together = 24K and MUCH MORE TAX). Generally, any benefits from a prior year, say an overpayment of tax or a loss you couldn't use, can be applied to the next year. File that "old" return first...because the law limits how long you have to get the refunds and benefits from it (you already missed out on the Stimulus Payment), and it may help the next years.

Can you file taxes for 2008 even though 2007 isn't done?
Get your 2008 taxes filed on time (or at least file an extension) even if you are not done with your 2007 taxes. You have already reached the maximum failure to file penalty for 2007. If you don't get your 2008 taxes filed on time, you will get a whole new set of penalties for 2008.
Can you file your baby on your taxes even though it is not due until after you file?

Too late to file 2007 taxes?
You have three years from the filing deadline to file your income tax return to receive your refund. Taxes for 2007 were due on April 15th 2008. You have until April 15th 2011 to file to receive a refund. Never if you have a tax liability.
Can you file 2007 and 2008 taxes together?
No. There are different forms for each year. You must fill out separate forms for 2007 and 2008. It is not a good idea to mail them in the same envelope. Remember, if you owe money, the penalty for not filing on time is TEN TIMES what the penalty would be if you filed on time but did not pay. Always file on time. Even if you didn't file your 2007 return yet, you should still file your 2008 return on time.

Didn't file income tax last year will you still get refund this year?
That depends. If you didn't overpay your taxes through withholding or other means, you won't get a refund. If you were not required to file a tax return in 2007 and are due a refund, there is no reason you shouldn't get it. If you had income in 2007 that the IRS is aware of (say because it was reported on a W-2 or 1099) and that was sufficient to require the filing of a 2007 return, your refund may be held up until the 2007 issue is resolved. If you meant to ask "Is there still time for me to get a 2007 refund?" the answer is an emphatic yes. All you have to do is fill out your 2007 tax forms and mail them in. It's really that simple. Even if you didn't file a 2007 tax return, you should file a 2008 tax return on time if you are required to file for 2008. A lot of people, for one reason or another, neglect to file a tax return for a year or two. They then become scared and stop filing tax returns for future years. Even if you missed a return in the past, you should file this year's return on time. Each and every year you miss is a separate offense and subject to a whole new set of additional possible penalties. Not filing for 2008 will not help your problems from past years. In fact, it will compound your problems and make them orders of magnitude worse. If you should have filed taxes in 2007 or you were owed a refund from 2007, file your 2007 taxes now. And regardless of what you do about 2007, file your 2008 taxes on time.
I recently filed my 2006 income taxes, can the irs hold my refund until I file my 2007 and 2008 income taxes?
It depends. The IRS may be expecting that you owe additional taxes and can hold refunds until you get it all squared away. Given the backlog, however, they may not yet be aware that you haven't file 07 and 08.
