My understanding was the IRS will give you a chance to pay back your taxes with penalties, and they only criminally charge people as a last resort. Is that not the case? Or perhaps only for people who aren't being egregious with their evasion.
- freeone3000 5y agoLivestreaming your cryptocurrency-fueled presidential bid while living on a houseboat in international waters to evade arrest may qualify as "being egregious".
- pcbro141 5y agoRight, I don't think they tend to imprison people who accidentally mess up their taxes or fail to report some income to save some money. I think it's typically the very egregious offenders who get jail time.
