Types of Tax Fraud

IRS fraud, which is also known as tax fraud, is connected to various areas of the law. Making a mistake on your taxes is not tax fraud, but deliberately withholding information regarding earnings or purposefully defrauding government entities are serious punishable offenses.

IRS fraud includes:

  • Nonpayment or under reporting of sales tax
  • Failure to pay employee payroll withholding tax
  • Failure to file tax returns
  • Tax evasion
  • Filing a false return
  • Failing to report offshore bank accounts
  • Failing to report international income

Charges of tax fraud may be made against private individuals or companies and their owners or executives.

Other Charges

The team of Florida tax fraud attorneys at Paul J. Donnelly, P.A., often finds that tax fraud charges are also brought with other white collar crime charges, such as embezzlement, insurance fraud, or money laundering. Thus, if you are fighting one set of charges related to IRS fraud, chances are you’re also responding to other related charges. If this is the case, you’ll require a complete legal team that can cover every aspect of the various charges levied against you.

Tax Fraud Penalties

The penalties for tax fraud often include time in prison, fines, and the requirement that all taxes owed are paid with interest. These penalties can include years in federal prison. Sometimes, a keen lawyer can make a deal that will lessen penalties, including the period spent incarcerated, fines, and the amount one must pay to the government.

How Charges Are Brought

Often someone will discover that they are being investigated regarding IRS fraud. Investigations are carried out by the United States Attorney’s Office and include the assembling of a grand jury, where evidence is weighted in order to see if a criminal trial is viable. If evidence is to be brought before a grand jury, which is the initial step before the government charges someone and takes them to court, we can work to your benefit to get charges dropped or lessened possibly and punishments mitigated before they ever go to trial. Often a deal can be made that will keep people out of jail and allow them to make restitution in a timely manner.
