The letter states:

"From the analysis of the data that the Tax Administration has carried out based on the self-declaration you made in September 2024, it results that in your payroll there is a high percentage of employees with minimum wage and specialized professions with wages that do not match the market.

For this reason, the Tax Administration considers you a risk subject in the field of salary informality!

As above, the Tax Administration, thanks to the advisory approach, in implementation of the awareness campaign it has undertaken, gives you a second opportunity to declare accurately and truthfully in the next payroll, dated November 20, to correct your situation.

If this does not happen even after the second notification, we inform you that you will be subject to continuous control and monitoring in the following period.
