The Tax Department is receiving complaints from divorced individuals who report their former spouses for allegedly failing to declare income or tax-related information correctly.
According to information obtained by Politis, a number of complaints submitted to the department concern the inaccurate or incomplete declaration of tax information by former spouses.
Complaints linked to post-divorce disputes
In many cases, the complaints arise in the context of personal or financial disagreements following separation or divorce.
Such reports are most commonly filed when former partners are involved in disputes over unresolved financial matters or when court proceedings relating to assets, property or other economic issues remain ongoing.
Tax authorities assess each complaint individually
Sources familiar with the matter say the Tax Department evaluates every complaint on the basis of the available evidence, regardless of the motives that may have prompted its submission.
Officials follow the prescribed audit and investigation procedures whenever information is provided that may indicate inaccurate or incomplete tax declarations.
Motives do not determine investigations
Although some complaints may stem from attempts by former spouses to seek revenge or gain leverage during wider disputes, authorities assess the substance of the information provided rather than the complainant's motives.
As a result, complaints that contain credible evidence may still trigger review procedures, even when they originate from personal conflicts between former partners.
