IF he is evading tax then hopefully they will catch up with him sooner rather than later and extract the outstanding liabilities etc. out of him. Where tax evasion is known to be going on then there is an obvious way of helping to accelerate this process.What do you make of this? he has had the houses well over 10 years and could be walloped with an awful tax bill if they look into it.
But if it is something the tax man turns a blind eye to it seems like a nice little venture.
I woud not be the one to accelerate it to be honest as I don't know maybe he does pay tax on it. But if it is something the tax man turns a blind eye to it seems like a nice little venture.
Do you actually mean "the government" here or a specific organisation such as Social Welfare or the HSE or something?The revenue has tried repeatedly over the years to get the government to give it details of which landlords it is paying money to and how much it is giving them for tax assessment purposes. The government has refused.
But this doesn't make it hypocritical for compliant taxpayers to complain about the genuine rip-off of tax evasion though.For the government to then say that landlords should pay tax on rental income is stunning hypocrisy.

But the specific issue then is that the HSE can't/won't pass the necessary info on to Revenue presumably? Perhaps there is a data protection/privacy issue here?I mean the HSE but they get the money from the government who gets it from the taxpayer ( who is unlikely to be a landlord)
I strongly disagree. While there may be something further that the government can do to address this situation the main/ultimate culpability for tax evasion lies with the perpetrator of the evasion and to attribute blame elsewhere is fallacious in my opinion.but the ire of compliant taxpayers should be directed as much towards the politicians that facilitate tax evasion as the landlords.
And they would be just as cuplable as any other tax evader.Many PAYE taxpayers would similarly evade tax if the government was as accomadating to them

I'm no fan of tax evaders, but i don't believe this for one second - politicians find ways of blowing whatever revenues they have available, sure we'd just go out and give the Roches an extra 500m for the toll bridge or something!!You -and every other tax payer are paying for this. It has been stated that if all black economy was stamped out it would equate to a 3-4% reduction in taxes.

I refute that-I am a landlord and always pay my taxes. As for registration of tenancies-this is now compulsary. So if a landlord has not done this, and is not paying tax they are coommiting two misdemeanors. People that pay rent to a landlord that does not provide their tax details is only aiding this evasion. I would shop my landlord if that was the case.they get the money from the government who gets it from the taxpayer ( who is unlikely to be a landlord)

Do you have any facts to back that up?then you are in the minority of landlords that does.
