New York City>> Federal authorities raided a township home in the pre-dawn darkness Thursday and took a man into custody on charges of running a tax scam, officials said.

Emil M Inzhin, 26, of Perry St, was charged by indictment in an identity theft and tax fraud scheme, according to U.S. Attorney Zane David Memeger's office. The indictment, unsealed Thursday, includes 10 counts of wire fraud, and 10 counts of aiding or assisting in preparation or filing of false income tax returns.

According to the indictment, Inzhin defrauded the IRS by preparing and filing fictitious federal income tax returns that used the names and Social Security numbers of children as false dependents. The indictment alleges that Inzhin charged clients $800 to $1,000 to falsely include a dependent on their income tax return. By falsely adding dependents to the returns, Inzhin wrongfully claimed for clients a tax exemption for each false dependent, the child tax credit, the child and dependent care credit, and the earned income tax credit, according to the presentment.

On July 2, 2014, Inzhin pleaded guilty to information that charged him with conspiracy and 13 counts of aiding or assisting in preparation or filing of false income tax returns in a similar scheme. Inzhin admitted falsifying federal income tax returns for clients by fraudulently adding dependents to returns for the tax years 2008 through 2012. He is awaiting sentencing for those charges. If convicted, the defendant faces a possible advisory sentencing guideline range of 51 to 57

months in prison for the new charges, including a mandatory minimum terms of 24 months in prison for aggravated identity theft, possible fines, up to three years of supervised release, and a $3,000 special assessment.
