Could an IRS audit lead to criminal charges?

Yes, but not every tax mistake is a crime.

One of our clients had his audit referred to IRS Criminal Investigation after failing to file returns and pay payroll taxes.

We helped demonstrate that his actions were not willful, and his case was returned to a regular civil audit. He still has tax issues to resolve, but the criminal investigation is no longer the immediate concern. If you are facing an IRS audit, don't wait for the situation to become more serious.

Can the IRS freeze your bank account without warning?

Imagine checking your bank account and discovering you cannot access your money.

Here's what many taxpayers don't realize: The IRS may have sent its final levy notice two years ago. In many cases, it doesn't have to send another final warning before levying your account for the same tax debt.

And once your bank receives the levy, you generally have only 21 days before it sends the frozen funds to the IRS.

At Tomes Law Firm, we have seen what happens when people wait too long to get help.

Don't assume that silence from the IRS means your tax problem has gone away.

Worried about a tax audit notice? Does the IRS think your business earned more than it actually did? Not every bank deposit is taxable income. One of our New Jersey clients operated a seasonal business and regularly transferred money between accounts to manage cash flow. During his IRS audit, those transfers made his income appear higher than it actually was. We took the initiative to reconstruct the transactions and create a roadmap tracing the money between accounts. Without that work, those transfers could have been treated as unreported income.

An IRS auditor's calculation is not necessarily correct. Learn more at https://tomeslaw.com/what-happens-when-the-irs-audits-your-business-bank-deposits/ :

You spent the money. But can you prove it to the IRS?

One online reseller regularly purchased discounted merchandise to sell at a profit. Unfortunately, she didn't keep the receipts. When the IRS audited her business, the merchandise costs she couldn't document were disallowed. The lesson? A legitimate business purchase isn't enough. You need records to support it. Missing receipts can mean additional taxes, penalties, and interest.

Facing foreclosure in New Jersey? You may have more options than you think.

Chapter 13 bankruptcy may help you:

✅ Stop a sheriff's sale

✅ Catch up on overdue mortgage payments

✅ Keep your home if you can afford the payments

✅ Gain time to sell your home and protect equity

Sometimes the best financial decision isn't keeping a home you can no longer afford. It's protecting your future.

Learn how Chapter 13 bankruptcy may help.

Can the IRS take 15% of your Social Security check?
Yes. And getting those deductions stopped can be harder than you think. We represented a taxpayer whose IRS collection continued for three months after hardship relief had already been approved. We ultimately had to involve IRS Counsel and a congressional office to resolve the problem and recover the money. For retirees living on a fixed income, losing even 15% of their Social Security can create serious financial problems.
Our latest article explains the Federal Payment Levy Program, hardship protections, and what you can do if the IRS is taking part of your benefits. https://tomeslaw.com/can-the-irs-take-your-social-security-benefits-for-back-taxes/
