<prompt> Human: So I didnt have taxes withheld all year, and being an idiot I didnt even set aside money for tax season. Now my accountant is telling me I owe somewhere around 30,000 for the entire year. Problem is, I dont have 30k. Is this even right? It was 30 as a made somewhere around 89k this year.What are my options and what can be done? Is it worth going through tax relief program. Also, this is for a friend I just put it in my perspective so it would be easier to discuss.  <response>: How did you not notice taxes being withheld? Surely you received pay stubs every month?Regardless, you need to setup a payment plan with the IRS ASAP. Another reason waiting until the tax return deadline to file is never a good idea.
