IRS tracking of deposits/cashouts/withdrawals
After some searching, I couldn't find an answer to this question.
Does the IRS keep track of incoming and outgoing cash to and from your bank account? I always thought they did, but only for amounts over $20,000. I recently heard they will now also track any online ACH over $800 from gaming sites, although this seems ludicrous to me. Anyone know the answer to this? |

[/ QUOTE ] if you get audited, they will find everything. so if you dont report a couple <10K transactions, you will mostly likely get away with it, unless you get audited. and then you will be over a barrel. neteller transactions can be seen too. pay your taxes. the risk reward ratio of not doing so is bad. |

I didn't say anything about evading taxes. I'm just looking for some objective information about the issue.
So you're saying banks keep records, but the IRS doesn't? |

[/ QUOTE ] my comment about banks was sarcastic. no, the IRS is not going to keep a record of what you do and tell you how much you owe. if you get audited though, they will find everything. they just dont have the manpower to do it for everyone. |

well if you cash a check and never deposit it, i don't think it can be found out if your audited right?

Banks are required to report any transactions that exceed 10K. It doesn't stop there though. They are also required to report "suspicious" activity. So to the poster who asks about cashing a check this is not fail safe if you are trying NOT to report taxes.
For example: If you cash a check for 2K every week they may deem this suspicious activity and file a report. Even if you are able to skate by this way and somewhere you want to buy that dream house you've been wanting using the cash you've been ratholing as a downpayment you will have no way of showing the mortgage company where this sudden windfall came from. Try 'splaining that one Lucy. Pay your taxes like the rest of us patriotic schmucks. Save you alot of headaches in the long run. |
