Tax Fraud in Ex's Documents

[Apaigen]

Georgia
I'm in a custody modification case with my ex. During discovery phase he submitted his tax returns, in which I found evident falsehoods which allowed him to dodge paying about $25k in taxes - he uses his LLC as a deduction safety net and writes off items I can prove have zilch to do with his business. The Schedule C claimed -$130k loss in expenses for the year. Also, same year, he applied for and received a loan for an RV; the SAME YEAR Schedule C submitted to secure the loan noted completely different numbers netting an income (in addition to his corporate job) of about $4500 monthly. While I care little about the loan, it is clear that he doesn't mind falsifying federal documents for his personal gain.
My questions is: Can I report him with these documents received during discovery?
Also, please save your "why do you care" and "live and let live" remarks. As a taxpayer, you should be offended. If you don't have legal knowledge, kindly scroll to the next.
Thanks!

I would suggest, if you want the volunteers of this site to assist you, dial back on the rudeness.

In 2018, you were the father of two boys.

Can I report him with these documents received during discovery?

You can report anything you like to anyone. Did you really not know that? What benefit you think might inure to you by making such a report?

Another example of a parent hating their ex more than they love their children.

OP has a history of vengeful actions toward those that she is at odds with.

Yes, unless there is some order in your case that prohibits you from doing that.

What benefit you think might inure to you by making such a report?

The reward that persons reporting tax fraud may be eligible to receive comes to mind. See the IRS page on Informant Awards.

I'm betting the "reward" the OP hopes for involves the very first sentence of her opening post.

The report to the IRS would have no effect on the custody modification proceeding. However, proving to the court that the ex lied on the tax returns would certainly go a long way to undermining his credibility in that proceeding.

Good luck on that IRS whistleblower claim...

If the ex was tried, found guilty and received a Federal prison sentence that would take care of dealing with the other parent for a while. I'm sure the kids would be thrilled.

Just to be clear, when I ask an OP what benefits he/she thinks might inure to him/herself, I am interested in what the OP is thinking and am not interested in what benefits might, either specifically or generally, exist that the OP may or may not have in mind.

If you are not interested in my reply then you are, of course, free to ignore it.
