Tax Fraud and Tax Crimes

If during the tax audit the IRS suspects that you have committed tax fraud they can impose a civil tax fraud penalty equal to 75% of the tax owed plus interest. Moreover, you can be sent to the IRS Criminal Investigation unit for criminal tax prosecution.

Tax crimes include:

  • False tax return
  • Tax evasion
  • Filing false documents
  • Failure to collect employment taxes
  • Failure to pay taxes
  • Failing to file a tax return

The penalties are very severe and can include years in jail plus fines and cost of prosecution for each tax crime. Therefore if you or your book keeper have any reason to believe that there may have been a mistake that may have resulted in understatements of income, inadequate records, failure to file tax returns, implausible or inconsistent explanations of behavior, concealment of assets, failure to cooperate with tax authorities, engaging in illegal activities, attempting to conceal illegal activities, dealing in cash, or failure to make estimated tax payments, you should contact us.
