IRS Examinations – By The Numbers

by

Wednesday June 1. 2022 – IRS Audits are called “Examinations.” And the IRS conducted 243,715 individual examinations in 2019. While the numbers have dropped – that is still a lot of audits.

The Chrisley Tax Evasion Trial is good example of what not to do. Taxpayer’s should be aware that an examination can turn into a criminal investigation. So, you should never lie to an IRS employee. Also, don’t engage in evasive or obstructionist behavior during an IRS audit. That can get you in trouble.

Attorney Steven A. Leahy reviews the Chrisley case and then looks at the IRS Examination numbers recently released in the 2021 Internal Revenue Service Data Book on Today’s Tax Talk.

IRS Releases 2021 Data Book

by

Thursday May 26, 2022 – The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Data Book is published annually by the IRS and contains statistical tables and organizational information on a fiscal year basis. The report provides data on collecting the revenue, issuing refunds, enforcing the law, assisting the taxpayer, and the budget and workforce.

The IRS is very good at compiling statistics, and breaking those statistics down into categories. The 2021 Data Book was released today. It will take some weeks for me to review all that data.

Because my practice focuses on helping people with tax problems, the first table I look at is Table 25. Delinquent Collection Activities, Fiscal Years 2020 and 2021. This chart breaks down the collection numbers.

Attorney Steven A. Leahy looks at the new IRS numbers on Today’s Tax Talk.
