On January 14, 2022, Caroline D. Ciraolo participates in a panel entitled “In The Eye of the Beholder: When Does a Civil Tax Case Move to a Criminal Tax Investigation?” at the 40th Annual Florida Bar Tax Section International Tax Conference.

Description: The IRS puts the current gross tax gap at more than $1 trillion. The gap consists of underreporting, underpayment, and non-filing, and each of these areas includes potential criminal targets. So what moves tax noncompliance from the civil to the criminal realm? This panel will address the IRS focus on civil fraud enforcement and criminal referrals. Topics will include the creation, organization, and initiatives of the IRS Office of Fraud Enforcement, current IRS enforcement priorities, recent criminal tax prosecutions, and more.
