The control over the transfers of Russians is getting stronger: the tax service overwhelmed the banks with fines.
Over the course of eight months, financial organizations were fined 553 million rubles for missing response deadlines - that's 29 times more than a year earlier, media reports. The matter reached the level of complaints to the central bank: bankers said that inspectors began to demand data on customer transactions, bypassing normal tax audits, using the section of the Administrative Offenses Law on administrative cases.
For citizens, this does not mean automatic verification of all transactions completely. There is no need to pay taxes on gifts, debt repayment or deposits to a joint restaurant account. Problems begin for those who turned their personal card into a working terminal: rent an apartment without a contract, do renovations, get a haircut at home or sell things on social networks without self-employed status.
If the card regularly receives amounts from different people, the tax office will ask for an extract, and the account holder will have to explain the source of the money. In addition, due to the congestion, technical failures have become more frequent, with cards being blocked even for those who have paid all taxes long ago.
Have you ever had to explain to the bank or the tax office where you got the money on the card?
