Both employers and employees face serious
consequences for evasion of employment taxes:
Employers may be subject to civil and
criminal sanctions, which may include confinement to a federal
prison, halfway house, home detention, or a combination of
these.
During fiscal 2005, more
than 50 individuals were sentenced to an average of 30 months in
prison for employment tax evasion.
Of the 2004 IRS Employment Tax Evasion criminal investigations 86.3%
of those sentenced resulted
in incarcerations.
Employees suffer because they may not
qualify for Social Security, Medicare, or unemployment benefits
when employers do not pay or report employment and unemployment
taxes.
Compliant employers unjustly carry
administrative and tax burdens, cumbersome Unemployment and
Workers' Compensation claims management, and are consequently
at a competitive disadvantage.
