The AFIP is investigating more than 300 people and companies with

"fiscal inconsistencies"

that during the last two months of 2020 bought financial dollars with bonds and stocks for US $ 402 million.

Among the audits initiated by the General Tax Directorate (DGI) of the AFIP there are operations with bonds and / or shares for

more than 1 million dollars

that were carried out by people with fiscal inconsistencies and / or without economic capacity.

According to reports from the tax agency, they are working with information sent by the National Securities Commission (CNV) to detect operations carried out by "monotributistas without economic capacity,

users of apocryphal invoices

and registered officials with different breaches."

In recent days, the DGI began to notify taxpayers to make their discharge.

As of the reinforcement of the stocks last year, restrictions to operate in the foreign exchange markets were intensified and controls to detect "inconsistencies" when accessing financial dollars were increased.

In this investigation, the body led by Mercedes Marcó del Pont detected that there were 32 taxpayers without economic capacity who last November sold

more than US $ 1 million

through the financial dollar markets, such as cash, which is used to get foreign currency from the country, or the MEP, which allows you to buy dollars in the Buenos Aires stock market.

In this way, they were able to dollarize for a total of

US $ 72.4 million.

They also found more than

250 monotributistas

who made sales of more than US $ 14,000 dollars (equivalent to about $ 2 million in November 2020) who, a priori, do not have sufficient economic capacity.

These are taxpayers who do not present an Affidavit of Personal Assets and who in total carried out operations for

US $ 59 million.

In addition, 29 people were identified who issue an M invoice and who operated through the CCL or the MEP.

From the AFIP it was reported that "in all cases progress is being made with

preventive actions

(with the lifting of the fiscal fair) to verify the economic and financial capacity, and evaluate the origin of the funds."

These taxpayers are required to provide detailed information on the purchase and sale operations of public securities and shares, MEP dollar and CCL, and provide documentation such as bank statements, sales vouchers, among others.

They must also inform through a note with the character of an affidavit which are the accounts (bank and clients) in the country and abroad with which they operate;

credit cards in the country and abroad in which it is the holder and / or additional;

indicate the accounts you have in relation to electronic means of payments;

the activity that it develops;

the information of the intervening settlement agent (s).

The tasks of inspection of the operations with CCL and MEP promoted by the DGI and the CNV are added to the electronic verifications carried out by the AFIP during 2020.

Between October and December, the agency carried out controls on different databases that allowed it to initiate more than

36,300 electronic audits

(non-face-to-face controls and verifications that are processed entirely online).

This facilitated control tasks in the framework of the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in more than

$ 1.1 billion in taxes owed

in its first three months of validity

.
