A visit from the IRS's police department, the CID (Criminal Investigation Division), means you have IRS problems. The CID has two sections working independent of each other. Special Enforcement is in charge of unions, drugs, and organized crime, while ordinary taxpayers and everything else is the responsibility of General Enforcement. You or someone you are related to is likely under criminal investigation if the CID visits you. These investigations can take a long time to complete and involve questioning friends, family, neighbors, business associates, bankers, staff, accountants, insurance agents, etc. If you are contacted by the CID about someone you know, don't lie. Be very careful if they are investigating your business partner as whatever you say might involve you. The CID's thorough investigation leads the IRS to about eighty per cent of tax crimes being prosecuted.

If you are the subject of the investigation, call your lawyer right away and do not speak to the CID. Your lawyer can find out what's happening by calling the IRS.

If the CID can prove your guilt without a doubt, you can be prosecuted. If not, you will get away with civil penalties.

Failure to file a tax return, evading taxes, or filing a fraudulent tax return will get the CID on your case.

If the CID moves forward with prosecution, the Justice Department takes over. It will be decided if the IRS should seek a federal grand jury indictment against you after an Assistant U.S. Attorney General studies your case. You'll be ordered to face a federal judge or be arrested once you're formally charged. At this point, you will be given the opportunity to plead guilty or not guilty. You might have to post bail or you might be released on your own recognizance.

Pleading not guilty eventually leads to a trial by judge or jury. If the IRS proves your guilt of the crime beyond reasonable doubt, you will be incarcerated at a federal prison for an average of 2 years. A plea bargain might give you a reduced sentenced, or even just placed on probation or fined. You will, however, have to pay the cost of prosecuting you.
