In 2015, a taxpayer can give up to $14,000 per person per year without being taxed on the gift. For example, this year you could give Friend A $14,000, Friend B $14,000, and your sister $14,000 and not be taxed on your gifts.lso, another way for parents to avoid the gift tax is to remember that each parent is entitled to their own individual $14,000 exclusion. This means that your mother and father could each give you $14,000 this year â for a total of $28,000 â without being taxed on that gift.
The IRS erroneous refund revival theory would allow the IRS to administratively collect all $2,000 of the erroneous refund to Alex, $4,000 of the $7,000 erroneous refund to Blair, and $4,000 from Cody (the $2,000 erroneous refund and the $2,000 unpaid on the original assessment).
The IRS charges penalties to encourage voluntary compliance. Therefore, the IRS penalties can be excessive. The IRS penalty for late filing your tax return is up to 25%. The IRS penalty for paying IRS taxes late is up to 25%. For example, if you owe $10,000 of taxes from four years ago, the penalties would be $5,000.
