Read MoreRecord Retention Guidelines
The retention periods apply to records needed to substantiate your federal income tax return and are based on the federal statute of limitations, which is normally three years. This means the IRS could audit your return up to three years from the due date of the tax return or the date of filing, whichever is later. However, if you substantially underreport income, fail to file a return, or file a fraudulent return, the statute of limitations could be much longer.
