IRS Targets Cash Businesses: Steve Perry EA Shields Your Income
Running a cash-heavy business might feel like freedom. No waiting on banks, no slow credit card deposits, just money in hand when you need it. But what feels like flexibility to you looks like a giant red flag to the IRS. If your business relies heavily on cash, make no mistakes the IRS is already watching.
If the IRS is targeting your business, every day you wait digs the hole deeper. Call Steve Perry EA at (678) 717-9818 or email him directly at [email protected].
Why the IRS Targets Cash-Based Businesses
The IRS assumes that if your business handles a lot of cash, it is easier for you to underreport income. You are automatically profiled as a “high risk” even if you are completely honest. Industries most often targeted include:
Restaurants and bars
Barber shops and salons
Convenient stores and repair shops
Construction contractors
Rideshare and gig drivers paid in cash
The IRS does not just glance at your return. They send examiners who dissect your records line by line. They use surveillance, compare your lifestyle to reported income, and deploy audits designed to prove underreporting.
The Real Consequences of IRS Scrutiny
Here’s the ugly truth: once the IRS locks onto you, they assume you are guilty until proven innocent. Breaking trust with the IRS, even unintentionally, can lead to devastating fallout:
Seizure of bank accounts and business assets
Frozen accounts that make it impossible to operate
Civil tax fraud penalties reaching 75 percent of the balance
Criminal referrals for tax evasion, which may lead to prison
Catastrophic interest and penalties that spiral beyond control
When the IRS comes, they do not care about your excuses, your paperwork struggles, or even the stability of your family or business. They care about one thing: collecting money.

IRS Agreements and the Consequences of Breaking Them
Many business owners try to “settle” with the IRS through an installment agreement or other arrangement. But here’s the catch:
If you miss even a single IRS payment without a valid reason, the entire agreement can collapse
Once terminated, the IRS resumes enforced collection, including garnishments, asset levies, and liens
You lose credibility with the IRS, making future arrangements harder to negotiate
Interest and penalties surge while you scramble to fix the fallout
The IRS does not believe in forgiveness when you break an agreement—it sees it as confirmation that you cannot be trusted.
This is where Steve Perry EA steps in.
