The U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey issued a permanent injunction against Newark-area tax return preparer Roxanna Cedeno, doing business as RC Travel Agency. The order prohibits Cedeno and her business from preparing tax returns, holding ownership stakes in tax preparation businesses, assisting with returns, or transferring customer lists. The court found Cedeno repeatedly engaged in misconduct, including overstating refunds and understating tax liabilities through fraudulent claims like false Schedule C expenses, education credits, and improper filings. Cedeno must notify all customers and employees of the injunction. The DOJ’s Civil Division announced the ruling, noting the IRS provides resources for selecting tax preparers. The court’s decision aligns with past actions against unscrupulous preparers, with details available on the Justice Department’s website.
