Criminal Tax Defense for Individuals and Businesses

The IRS has recently stepped up its criminal tax enforcement efforts in several key ways:

a) The IRS is aggressively prosecuting taxpayers on a wide range of tax crime charges.

b) Each IRS Criminal Division field office is now fully staffed with Special Agents, as the result of it’s recent hires.

c) The IRS is focusing on small and mid-sized businesses and self employed individuals.

d) The IRS continues to aggressively prosecute individuals that utilized offshore “tax havens”.

A criminal tax investigation is different than an audit. In an audit, the IRS is attempting to collect money from you. In a criminal tax investigation, the government is preparing a case so they can can PROSECUTE you and put you in JAIL.

Criminal tax investigations are primarily conducted by the IRS Criminal Investigation Division (CID), and CID agents are referred to as IRS Special Agents. However, many cases also involve criminal investigators from the FBI, Postal Service, DEA, BATF and state and local criminal enforcement agencies.

Some common tax related crimes include:

	Tax Evasion
	Failure to Collect Taxes
	Failure to Pay Over Taxes Collected to the IRS
	Failure to File a Return
	Failure to Supply Information to the IRS
	Failure to Pay Tax Owed
	False Returns
	Submitting False Documents
	Attempts to Interfere with Administration of Internal Revenue Laws
	False Statements
	False Claims
	Perjury (such as submitting a false Offer in Compromise)
	Mail Fraud
	Money Laundering
	Conspiracy to Commit Any of the Above
	Aiding and Abetting the Commission of Any of the Above
