A federal tax evasion conviction under 26 U.S.C. § 7201 carries up to five years in prison per count. Individuals generally face fines of up to $250,000 under the federal fine statute, with higher amounts possible under its gain-or-loss provisions. Tax loss and other sentencing factors affect the outcome. A conviction also risks consequences for employment, professional licenses, and immigration status.
