IRS and DOJ Criminal Investigations

The IRS Criminal Investigation Division and the Department of Justice (DOJ) Criminal Tax Division investigate and prosecute cases of suspected tax fraud and other financial, or “white collar,” crimes. The IRS Special Agents are experts at uncovering fraud. DOJ attorneys are skilled litigators with the resources of the United States government to support them and their investigations against U.S. taxpayers who have committed tax fraud and other violations of tax laws.

All of the below are FELONIES. Any of these actions can increase your exposure to severe civil penalties and the potential a criminal investigation or prosecution:

  • Willfully filing an inaccurate tax return
  • Willfully failing to report income
  • Failing to file an FBAR
  • Failing to file your Form 8938
  • Tax Fraud
  • Filing a frivolous tax return
  • Gross under reporting of income
  • Failure to pay taxes
  • Willful evasion of taxes
