Also I know it feels impossible saving enough for current taxes while trying to pay for back taxes. and the interest for back taxes is crazy, so it builds up. My parents were like it’s 2017 and we’re paying for back taxes starting from 2013. what they did was you have to have enough money saved to pay your current year’s taxes (since it sounds like you’re not making quarterly payments) Make that wall, and then as you make back taxes hopefully it reaches that wall. Basically you’re closing that gap. If the ending finishing line keeps moving basically there’s no finish line and it’s ongoing. ☹️ I know it’s hard, but little changes will add up. Maybe for a few years you’ll have to buckle down and really go for it.
