What is the name of your state? Pa
I know a lot of people claim exempt on their federal returns fradulantley, just so they dont withhold taxes, so they can pay it at the end of the year. I am assuming that alot of people do this. So heres my question, what do they do with all of these people when/if they discover it? Make them pay penalties, interest? Only reason I'm asking this is becasue I was talking to some people that do this. And, if so many people do this, does the irs ever catch on to these people. I had an issue with claiming exempt once, but that was because I was underestimating income, but switched it back, but some people just blatently claim exempt, and I couldnt figure out how/why the irs doesnt catch on.
