tax evader
According to Cabanellas (Diccionario Jurídico), "omiso" is a "person who fails to perform an obligation or duty". In your case I think it is a tax evader.

neglectful, careless, remiss, negligent person
It comes from the verb "omitir" which means to leave out, to neglect. IN this case, it refers to an individual who has failed to make payment.
