Tax Audits

Not necessarity there are many techniques in auditing and any fraud cannot go unidentified or unnoticed if its audited by a certified auditor as they will have to undergo a training and work under a Qualified Auditor for a few years. They will learn both, how to do a fraud and how to detect them too. A material fraud can be identified very easily.

Produce CERTIFIED Financial Statements. Most financial institutions that make business loans will require financial statements that are "Certified". Thus a regular Public Accountant would not suffice.

To say that suicide as a result of a tax audit is "VERY RARE!" is speculation, is unhelpful and diminishes the seriousness of the problem of an out of control agency of the US government.

Causes of suicides are not tracked with the degree of specificity needed to answer the question. I think it's not unreasonable to assume tax difficulties are frequently a component of financial or debt difficulties. One could get a sense of the magnitude by searching "suicide as a result of debt." Doing this results in a pretty significant number of returns.

Even one suicide over a tax issue is a tragedy because a majority of tax related legal problems would be eliminated by replacing the income tax with a national consumption tax such as H.R 25 (the FairTax.)

For more information about the FAIRtax, including PDFs showing your effective tax rate, google "HR25FairTaxReview."

IMO it is VERY RARE! Why end your life because the IRS wants to verify your deductions and income. If you've kept even basic records the chances of "beating an audit" are good. Your chances increase significantly if you acquire the services of a Tax Professional to represent you before the IRS.

The worst case scenario is that you will owe some additional taxes. The IRS has a multitude of methods to allow you to pay those taxes. Even if you are destitute and can't afford ANY of your tax deficiency, then the law allows the overdue taxes to evaporate after a given time frame (referred in our industry as the CSED).

For complete information refer to the Pub. 556. They are both Adobe PDF copies so you can save them to your computer or print them as you need.

There are essentially two ways your return could be selected for examination. One is the infamous "Red Flags". These are not printed anywhere but when the tax returns have very high expenses without corresponding income that is a Red Flag. Tax returns claiming the Earned Income Tax Credit that show someone earning just enough Self Employment Income that allows the filer to get the maximum amount of EITC is a Red Flag. That sort of thing.

However, the MAJORITY of tax returns selected for examination are through the Differentiation process. All tax returns filed are compared against some "models" of returns on file on the Cray Supercomputers at the IRS Computing Centers. How "different" a return is from the model results in a "Differentation Score" commonly referred to as the Dif Score. A Dif Score above a secret number level qualifies a return to be eligible for examination. Then it's just a matter of "luck" whether the computer will select your return from amongst the millions of others eligible for examination.

Statutory audits are required by governmental agencies or industry regulators.

Banks, insurance companies and general firms provide audited statutory financial statements periodically. Statutory audit procedures are varied, and include understanding a business entity's operating environment and controls.

An auditor performs tests of accounts and balances on a bank's, an insurance company's or a hedge fund's account balances to check that such balances and corporate financial statements are accurate and complete

Tax records such as receipts, canceled checks, and other documents that prove to the IRS an item of income or a tax deduction appearing on your tax return need to be kept until the statute of limitations expires for that tax return. Usuallyit is three years from the date the tax return was due or tax return was filed with the IRS, or two years from the date the tax was paid to the IRS, whichever is later. This is the time period in which the IRS can question your tax return; typically three years after it is filed. However,there is no statute of limitations when a tax return is false or fraudulent or when no tax return is filed with the IRS. You also need to keep some tax records indefinitely, such as tax records relating to property, since you may need those tax records to prove to the IRS the amount of gain or loss if the property is sold.
