Well if the Harkels have a joint bank accounts then yes, regardless of where in the world MM is she has to pay whatever taxes are due as a US citizen, it also put her in a different tax bracket. PH being a royal doesn’t matter either. Sure she can claim certain things however over a certain amount they have to provide receipts. And I’m talking big money not little things say gifts under $500 for example. She may not be audited this year BUT depends on how honest she is with what is filed.

I don’t understand why people assume that Meg’s merching equals not paying taxes. People really need to re-think why they have come to such conclusions. Merching and tax paying are not mutually exclusive concepts. She merched before she married Harry, yes, but that does not mean she didn’t pay her taxes.

Also, why are people assuming she’ll be audited? There are more than 300+ million people in the US. The IRS only has a certain number of employees, let alone auditors. Getting audited is statistically unlikely, particularly when you consider all the budget cuts the IRS has been subjected to recently.

Just because you commit tax fraud does not mean you will automatically get audited. I knew a guy who was his church’s webmaster for their website. You cannot declare a charitable donation for volunteering your time. Guess what he did? He claimed he “donated” webpages and used the value of each webpage as a charitable donation. He claimed thousands of dollars for “webpages” as a charitable donation for multiple years. It was all fraudulent. He did this for more than five years and was not audited. And he was never audited by the IRS as far as I know.

Just because you aren’t completely honest with the IRS, does not mean they are instantly going to come after you when they can’t verify the information. There is a very slim chance that Megs will be audited by the IRS. Even if she is, likely no one will ever know about it. As long as she is a member of the BRF, they will make sure she pays her taxes because they do not want to risk a headline that an HRH is not paying their share of taxes.
