Low prices and promises of less tax function as strong «bait» For thousands of taxpayers every year. Behind tax returns at an opportunity price there is not necessarily anything illegal, but a practice that uses the citizen's need for immediate benefit and the expectation of less tax or return.
But as the Commission warns, Panhellenic Federation of Taxes (POFEE), in some cases these expectations are based on manipulations which do not withstand the cross-checks of ADE, resulting in controls being activated and charges arising.
The GOI notes that the tender offers Accounting and tax services with «opportunistic» prices are, in some cases, promoted by skill, who even use club platforms or other operators to attract customers, offering tempting prices and promises of tax benefits. In practice, however, «the selection accountant cannot be made on offer terms», as tax cases do not allow for experimentation or easy promises to reduce taxes.
The crucial element is that there are already references to the ETF in cases of taxpayers who were lured by such practices. They believed they could reduce their tax burden or secure refundBut then they were faced with tax controls and unpleasant consequences, when the data of the declarations were not confirmed by the crossings.
In this environment a whole «market» fast and low-cost services, where the main message is not just the submission of the declaration, but the result. The phrase «You'll pay less.» or «You'll get a return.» acts as a key tool for attracting, creating expectations that are not always confirmed. The process is often done remotely, without substantial data control, resulting in the declaration being treated as a typical transaction rather than as a critical tax transaction.
The problem for the taxpayer begins when the control mechanisms. With her crossings ADE to rely now on pre-filled data and electronic transactions, deviations are identified more easily and responsibility is borne by the taxpayer himself, even if the declaration has been submitted by a third party.
The EUPT calls on citizens to show increased attention and trust professionals with whom they already have a cooperation relationship and knowledge of their tax history. The relationship of trust and responsible guidance cannot be replaced by «attractive» offers
