BINGO! What do you think the purpose of “La Raza tax service” is?
You think 1,300 illegals just picked a tax service out of the phone book? No, they knew exactly where they could get someone to help them fill out the phony forms.
Were the forms phony? Or the income declared? Or the TIN? None of the above.
What was phony was the SS# that these guys provided to their employers to prove they were "legal." I seriously doubt the tax preparer asked for or submitted these numbers to the IRS. Indeed we know that because the tax return would have been bounced at some point for having incorrect information.
The IRS does not require a SS# to submit and income tax form.
And again, no one has charged the tax preparer with any crime.
First, I don't think your facts are exactly right. They seized 4900 tax records, of which 70 were believed to be from illegals. I don't know whether you are in business but tell me how long you could survive on the revenue from preparing 1300 fairly simple tax forms. Assume $300 per tax return, which is probably high. Ready, steady, go.
I have a couple of modest proposals. Let us go through the US and shut down and seize the records of every business that uses "La Raza" as part of the title. Must all be illegal or front runners of illegals. Surely, must be (complete and utter sarcasm for those reading this).
Second modest proposal, since we are at it. A lot of bootleggers were Irish. Let us seize the records of anyone who does business with anyone with an Irish name. We are looking for bootleggers and bootlegging is an incredibly serious crime because it involves tax evasion, illegal immigrants, murdering police and public officials.
