These high-income taxpayers are getting a visit from the IRS
CNBC ^ | WED, FEB 19 2020 | Darla Mercado

The IRS will soon start making house calls to high-income individuals who didn’t submit a tax return.

Starting this month, the agency will send its revenue officers to visit people with income in excess of $100,000 and who failed to file Form 1040 in 2018 or in previous years.

“These visits shouldn’t come as a surprise to the taxpayer because the IRS has contacted these individuals multiple times regarding their tax issues prior to their cases being assigned to an IRS revenue officer,” said Hank Kea, director of field collection operations, small business/self-employed division, at the federal agency.

If they voted or contributed a Democrat at any level, I have no sympathy

Slow news day at CNBC, I guess.

This is literally NOTHING at all new. They do these types of investigations every year.

The ‘brains’ at CNN are in the smoky backrooms trying to turn Trump’s pardons into an impeachable offense somehow to report on real stories

100K just ain’t that much in some places. Who the hell thinks they can get away without filing income tax?!? You have to be a high 6 digit democrat to break the law.

Only a moron would not file a 1040. That’s how they got Capone.

No reasonable prosecutor would pursue tax fraud at the Clinton Foundation unless they wanted to hang on their closet door

I’d like to see the MSM stake out at his house like they did for Roger Stone.

I suspect some of those folks may have dropped dead or went to jail and don't income...

Regarding unconstitutional federal taxes, patriots need to elect a new patriot Congess that will promise to not only respect Congress’s Article I, Section 8-limited powers, but will also respect the Supreme Court’s clarification of Congress’s limited power to appropriate taxes.

Remember in November!

MAGA, now KAGA! (Keep America Great Always!)

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA will effectively give PDJT a third term in office imo.

That would be me. Since 1970 I have 6 1040s,all filled out by IRS auditors. To date they have written me checks for over $800. In 1984 they sent a US Marshal after me. (Didn't find me.)
The last contact I had from them was a phone call when I was told "Don't do anything until you hear from us." almost 20 yrs ago.

You don’t have to fill out a 1040 if you didn’t make enough money to require it.

Also, you don’t have to fill one out if you already paid more than you needed to pay in tax that year, in my understanding.

I had a horrendous experience with the IRS over “68”,”69” and “70” tax returns that went on for months. 68,69 I was in Vietnam and 70 was a drug fueled drunken stupor but the threats and endless forms gave me a mental block. I fill out factual I-9s when required and will pay any tax bill they ask for but I will cut my right hand off before I’ll fill out a 1040.

I had a mental block one year my taxes were quite difficult to understand for my business. It had been a bad year economically. That year, I did the run through of my expenses and income and such and had to file a state income tax form but not the federal, so I didn’t.

I understand what you are saying.

I filed an extension. My job plus stock money would put me over. The IRS and me went back and forth over $10,000 they says owed back for 2014.

Meanwhile all crooked politicians skate.
