Attention! Federal Revenue notifies 6.5 million taxpayers due to debts

A IRS sent subpoenas and notices of charge for approximately 6.5 million taxpayers. The notifications were sent between September and October, collecting around R$6 billion related to debts declared and not paid by the due date. The intention of the Revenue is to inform about the importance of maintaining tax regularity and compliance with tax obligations.

If you have debts and are not sure about your situation with the IRS, you can consult the Summons Term, the Collection Notice through e-CAC PO Box. It is through this portal that taxpayers receive notices from the Tax Authorities, in a confidential and secure manner. Access is protected against fraud.

In the case of those opting for Simples Nacional, such as Individual Microentrepreneurs (MEI), messages sent to the e-CAC Mailbox can also be checked on the

DTE-SN (Electronic Tax Domicile of Simples Nacional). It can be accessed through the Simples Nacional Portal.

What are the consequences of non-regularization?

Not paying off debts IRS generates several consequences for entrepreneurs, such as:

• Preventing the issuance of a Tax Regularity Certificate (Debt Clearance Certificate – CND), making it difficult to release loans and financing, in addition to preventing participation in tenders public;
• CNPJ non-compliance with the Simples Nacional regime;
• Registration of the debt in the Union's Active Debt, generating judicial collection with an increase of up to 20% and possible attachment and seizure of assets;
• Inclusion of the CPF and CNPJ in the Informative Register of Unpaid Credits of the Federal Public Sector (Cadin);
• Forwarding the debt to the Federal Public Ministry of Fiscal Representation for Criminal Purposes in situations where the taxpayer failed to collect tax from public coffers or social contribution deducted, or charged from the 3rd.

How to settle debts?

One of the ways to settle your debts is to make full payment of the amounts owed. To do this, when carrying out the query on the e-CAC portal, click on the “Issue Darf” button next to each open debt. To include debts with the FGTS, the Domestic Employer must issue the eSocial Collection Document (DAE) in the Domestic eSocial Portal.

Another option is to pay the debt in installments. On the e-CAC portal, choose the “Payments and Installments” option, click on Installments – Request and Track, and then select “Negotiate a new installment”.
