Criminal Tax Fraud Overview: Crossing the line from Civil to Criminal 1 Credit
Select your learning mode
Where is the line between legitimate tax planning and criminal tax fraud?
There are two types of federal income tax fraud: civil and criminal. Although these two concepts are related and even intertwined to some extent, they do have significant differences. For starters, civil tax fraud generally results in penalties asserted against a taxpayer whereas criminal tax fraud generally results in jail time or probation. Significantly, however, a taxpayer can be liable for both civil tax fraud and criminal tax fraud concerning the same activity or activities, i.e., the Government can assert both sanctions against a wrongful taxpayer.
In this CE course speaker, Don Fort will share his expertise in understanding the difference between civil and criminal tax matters.
Don Fort is the Director of Investigations at Kostelanetz & Fink, LLP, and the immediate past Chief of the Internal Revenue Service’s Criminal Investigation Division. He has deep expertise in criminal and civil controversies.
