I overstayed in US for over 9 years. When can I apply for a visa again?

Worth noting that as far as I know paying taxes in the US is independent of your legal status and you should have paid them. In fact you are very likely in more trouble for not paying your taxes than for overstaying. You should get your tax issue sorted (with a competent lawyer) before setting foot in the US ever again as this could get you in jail while your overstay is likely met with just a ban!

I even think it is likely that officers would question you about how you managed to live in the US for 9 years if you were to come back. Your tax issue could easily surface and get you into deep trouble.

According to this site and other similar ones, you’re facing a 10 year ban unless you have special circumstances such as being married to a US citizen. For further information, I suggest you contact a competent immigration lawyer. There are many you can find with a simple online search who may be able to assess your specific situation further for free or a small fee.
