Question: Tax Fraud??????????????????????????????/?

Can someone actually go to jail for filing head of house hold while married to gain the earned income credit. Especially if they have done it for several years?
It’s not me, it’s my soon to be ex. She did it. She recently met a guy online and after 16 yrs. of marriage left and attempted to take my 2 sons (ages14-4) with her to live wqith this guy. She mocks me and mocks God. When going over thing with my attorney, this came up as a possibility considering she’s going after custody of my sons.
Let me clarify. She just left recently. Over the years she has done this while we and our children were all living together as a family.

Answer: Yes tax fraud is minimum 7 yrs in jail. To make matters worse then you get hit with a line by line audit of all your tax returns.
Then comes paying back what you stole and add in penalties and interested and your bill could be 100k
