Income tax is mandatory in every country so that the government can operate its machinery and function properly with funds. However, there are ways to avoid paying income tax. If you work alone and earn your money from the internet, the income need not be declared because it may not be regular and consistent within the payable sum. And even if you earn much more than that, no one knows how much you earn unless you talk about it in your blog somewhere which may risk the income tax guys coming after you. In some countries, online income is not tax deductible.

In many cases, tax avoidance is rampant amongst executives and managers. What they do is to include the insurance policies that they pay monthly or yearly which may lessen the amount of the income tax. Sometimes, they declare that they have bought new computers or sign up for advance courses to upgrade themselves and these are not taxable, thereby they pay less income tax and more money comes back to them for upgrading themselves.

You may be taxed even more

However to completely avoid paying tax may be detrimental to your coffers because once the authorities find out that you don’t contribute a cent to tax, you may be slapped with a fine and higher income tax as a lesson for those who don’t pay tax at all. As long as you are not found out, it is ok but once your luck runs out and if the authorities learnt that you cheat on them, then it is payback time many times over the actual amount. So, is it worth it not to declare your assets?

To play safe, many executives just pay the minimal amount while not declaring everything and all their sources of income. Some of them may be moonlighting part time with some money from the internet or giving tuition to a group of students in their homes. The extra money that they make need not be declared at all as they may be negligible compared to what they earn in the office or from the government in the civil service. So tax avoidance is an issue you need to ponder about and it would be advisable to consult your accountants or auditors.

Whatever you can save is the amount you earn as in a penny saved is a penny earned. Hence, many people will try to use the tax deductible money to purchase more insurance policies, declare defendants like their retired aged parents living with them or simply to upgrade themselves by signing up for courses or buying new computers at home. A certain amount is also tax deductible depending on the number of children that they have.
