Question: How long should I hold onto old tax stuff? I have my tax records, etc. from all the way back to 1995. How many years back to I need to save? What is the furthest back that they can audit you, etc?

Answer: I am not making this up.  They can audit from 6 years back so keeping the last 7 is a good idea.  I now this because my niece is an accountant and I asked her.
