Are you feeling superior over not filing your taxing?
The most likely scenario here is that if were you to file, you'd receive a refund. The IRS will happily keep your money.
However, if you have mucked with your deductions such that you are underpaying, you're playing a dangerous game.
As they say, fuck around and find out. In this case the fuck around part will especially unpleasant.
Hope you maintain cash only lifestyle because they will empty your bank accounts. They will garnish your wages. They will get a their money with penalties and interest.
Playing stupid stops working when you hit 18. The IRS doesn't give a fuck if you can't keep track of it. They will assume it's all a taxable event if you cannot prove otherwise.
Those apps are reporting anything over a certain minimum. When the IRS decides you're worth going after, they will audit you, they will go back as many years as allowed by law, you will be fucked.
What you're doing is tax evasion. There is zero argument otherwise. No lawyer will be able to help you. You will very definitely end up in jail.
This post is evidence of your criminal intent.
Your rationale here makes you sound like a sovereign citizen. You certainly don't sound very wise. Not collecting a last paycheck, because paperwork...damn.
The IRS won't call you, they'll send certified mail and the fucking will start and you will probably continue to fuck aroind and end up prison and from what I've read here, you will never recover.
