Diary of a Tax Practice Owner

Ep. 22 - How a Simple Payroll Mistake Led to a Criminal Investigation


Listen Later

In this episode of Diary of a Tax Practice Owner, Jessica Smith shares a jaw-dropping story that starts with a simple employee misclassification case but quickly unravels into something much more sinister. What happens when the IRS starts digging and finds more than just payroll mistakes? A family-run business, no payroll, an independent contractor setup that didn’t add up, and a mysterious father lurking behind the scenes—could this taxpayer’s dad actually be tied to organized crime? 😳

Join Jamie and Jessica as they spill the tea on how a routine tax audit turned into a full-blown scandal, the shocking penalties involved, and why the IRS doesn’t play when it comes to payroll taxes. If you’ve ever wondered how deep an audit can go (or just love a little tax drama), you won’t want to miss this one!
