Your first contact with the IRS isn’t going to be them knocking on your door. That isn’t how it happens.
And if they are kicking in your door, they won’t be the only 3 letter agency involved. [/quote]
Let me qualify this: Unless you are acting like Tony Montana. If you are acting like a fucking thug criminal and they kick down your door, you can say you want to talk to your lawyer all you want, you are fucked.
Because the only time they are coming to your house/place of business without lengthy civil contact prior is if you are acting like Al Capone. [/quote]
Yeah definitely man, I wasn’t trying to imply that it’s likely that out of the blue the IRS is going to come to people’s doors as a first contact. And it’s more likely they’d do this as part of a criminal investigation. But it is something that they can do and I still stand by my statement that there is no profit in talking to them. [/quote]
It is why I tried to qualify my statement.
You aren’t “wrong” at all, its just most people have an irrational fear of the IRS and taxation. (This should tell you people voting democrat something.) So, my intention replying to you was to let people know that the IRS 9999 times out of 10000 sends many letters and tries to work with you to resolve issues.
the only time you go to jail or have your door kicked down is when you are being a blatant criminal.
