Louisiana Tax Preparer Sentenced to Prison, Forced to Pay Restitution For Filing False Tax Returns
Louisiana – On Thursday, December 1, 2022, U.S. Attorney Duane A. Evans of the Eastern District of Louisiana announced that Cheryl L. Kinchen, age 39, and a resident of Tickfaw, Louisiana, was sentenced on November 29, 2022, to one year and a day after she pleaded guilty to two counts of filing false tax returns in her personal capacity by U.S. District Court Judge Greg G. Guidry.
According to court filings, Kinchen, the owner/operator of Beyond Blessed Tax Services, submitted false tax returns for her own personal taxes in 2015 and 2017, substantially underreporting her total income earned as a tax preparer throughout the alleged time periods.
Kinchen was sentenced to one year of supervised release, as well as $167,496 in restitution to the IRS.
Attorney Evans commended the IRS-Criminal Investigation special agents for their handling of the case. Assistant US Attorney Edward J. Rivera is prosecuting the case.
