According to official and judicial sources, the filing arises from oversight and analysis tasks carried out by ARCA, in which fund movements without the corresponding accounting support were detected. According to the accusation, these transactions could have been used to conceal the real destination of the money and undermine the existing tax control mechanisms, including through the use of fake invoices.
Government officials clarified that this is "a new complaint, not an extension of the previous one" and that it is part of a strategy to deepen the judicial front against AFA's leadership, headed by the disgraced Claudio "Chiqui" Tapia. On a preliminary basis, the estimated tax damage exceeds 375 million pesos; however, officials do not rule out that the figure may increase as the investigation progresses.

The evidentiary material has already been made available to the federal courts, while the national revenue agency continues with the administrative and judicial actions corresponding to its legal powers. The case file originated after a comprehensive audit of AFA's operations carried out between March 2023 and June 2025.
This new complaint adds to another already filed by ARCA, which included an extension with more evidence for alleged tax and social security evasion, in a case whose amount under investigation would exceed 19 billion pesos.
The judicial offensive is moving forward in parallel with the administrative process being conducted by the Office of the Inspector General of Justice (IGJ), which ordered AFA to submit financial statements and documentation from previous fiscal years.

Although its head, Daniel Vítolo, has for the moment ruled out the appointment ofoversight officials, government officials indicated that this possibility remains open and will depend on the outcome of the technical analysis of the documentation submitted.
