Frivolous Tax Arguments

Frivolous Tax Arguments

When it comes times for tax season there are many people who will do anything to get out of paying their taxes. Whether they come up with an excuse to not do these taxes at all or they make up excuses for why they shouldn’t have to pay a particular part of the tax code, it is all seen in a negative light when it comes to the IRS. If you file a frivolous tax return, the IRS will find out and you could face some serious consequences. If you are uncertain about whether you can claim a certain thing on your tax return or you are being charged with frivolous tax arguments by the IRS, make sure to get the professionals at Tax Problem Resolutions on your side from the beginning to ensure that this case ends as favorably as possible.


What are Frivolous  Tax Returns

 

There are plenty of tax payers as well as scam artists that are going to try and place wrong information on a tax return, claiming that these should be credits or deductions when it comes time to lower their taxes. One of the most common of these ideas is that filing and paying of your taxes is actually voluntary. Or you only need to pay on income that you make form a foreign source, you can refuse to pay these taxes based on moral or religious grounds and by using the First Amendment, and that the only people who need to pay federal taxes are those who work for the federal government. One of the worst that you can try to do is file a tax return that says you have no tax liability or no income to report, especially when you have taxable income from your job and you try to ask for a refund on the taxes your employer withheld for you.


None of these are legitimate reasons to not pay your taxes and if you try to file a tax return with any of these reasons, it is going to be sent back to you and you could be in big trouble if you happened to get a refund check out of it. All of the arguments that are listed above have been thrown out in court so you have no way to get them to work for your case.


If you have been told that one of these reasons is legitimate and that you can file them on your tax return, you need to get away from that professional and choose one you can trust.

Legitimate Issues

 

There are some legitimate issues that you can bring up in order to contest your tax liabilities. For example, if you feel that you are being overcharged on your property taxes because there was a mistake in accounting, you are allowed to bring these up and could argue that the price is wrong. If you are right and prove your point, your taxes could be reduced. But refusing to pay taxes on moral and religious grounds is not allowed. As a citizen of this country, you agree to pay these taxes and it does not matter what religion or moral thought you are a part of because this will not change.


Understanding your tax obligations can be a challenge. No one wants to pay for their taxes each year, they would rather keep that money in their own pockets, so when a professional comes along and promises that there are easy ways to avoid paying those taxes each year, many people are naïve enough to jump on the opportunity. And while you may be able to avoid the taxes for the year, the IRS will soon notice that this is a frivolous tax return and you could get into a lot of trouble and have years of back taxes and the fees and interest associated with them to pay back as well.
