Tax Fraud

Tax fraud is the deliberate attempt to mislead the government to pay less tax than one legally owes. It involves intentionally misrepresenting your financial situation through various means, such as failing to report income, claiming false deductions or credits, and filing false tax returns.  

Tax fraud is a serious crime with significant consequences, including hefty fines, potential imprisonment, and the obligation to repay evaded taxes with added interest and penalties. It’s crucial to distinguish tax fraud from unintentional tax evasion. While both aim to avoid paying taxes, tax fraud involves the intentional element of deception.
