The Internal Revenue Service and
INPS pensions and social security agency are keeping an eye out
for undue compensations and tax fraud, tax chief Rossella
Orlandi said Tuesday.
"Over 1.9 million people used tax credits to make mandatory
social security payments into the INPS fund in 2014," said
Orlandi.
"In 2014 we saw a 60% rise in social security claims using
tax credits,"added INPS chief Tito Boeri.
"This increase is not in line with previous years, leading
us to suspect the claims may at least in part constitute an
attempt to evade taxes and social security payments".
The two agencies have sealed a deal to cross-check their
databases in order to track down tax evaders and other fiscal
offenders as fraudulent compensations are a growing phenomenon,
Boeri and Orlandi said.
