Deliberate understatement of tax
Filing an inaccurate tax return by underreporting income or overstating deductions is considered tax fraud by HMRC. The penalties for deliberate understatement of taxes can be severe, including fines of up to 70% of the additional tax owed, as well as potential criminal prosecution resulting in confiscation of assets. Examples of tax understatement could include failing to report all revenue, incorrectly deducting personal expenses as business expenses, or omitting an employee’s wages and PAYE tax from company accounts.
While innocent mistakes may be rectified without penalty, intentional understatement on a tax return is viewed as willful evasion. There is high risk and no reward in attempting to reduce tax liability through fraudulent reporting. If unsure how to accurately calculate taxable income and deductions, it is advisable to consult a professional tax accountant. Our tax accountants can ensure taxes are calculated correctly and all documentation is in order, avoiding underpayment penalties. If an error is discovered, full disclosure and cooperation with HMRC is essential to minimize consequences. With the help of our specialist tax advisors, businesses and individuals can feel confident their taxes are filed completely and accurately.
