And wouldn't you know it, Hunter & Joe's records mysteriously disappeared.
Purposeful Fed. Government redistribution of wealth. Someone prove otherwise.
Maybe those 87,000 new agents can help them find the records.
China has them.
Gosh, they were around here somewhere. Danny, did you see if they went out with the trash bags?
have they been fined tens of millions of dollars like private corporations are?
Under relentless and withering Republican scrutiny, this will result in an IRS budget increase and ten thousand more government union employees to make sure “this never happens again.”
Well, I sure hope the IRS was able to sell this information for a good price.
“The TIGTA report, released earlier this month, says the IRS is “not in compliance” with federal recordkeeping rules.”
Rules, schmools...
Actually...cut IRS funding until they Are in compliance...I can dream
you’d think they’d notify the compromised parties, and you’d be wrong...
They threw them away. When they get behind, they simply throw away the backlog.
I saw this article late last week, and started thinking.
If one of my clients gets an audit letter, it is common for the IRS to request they provide a return. I am musing how, “We destroyed that return and all supporting data when the statute of limitations expired” will play. The SOL is three years from the due date or filing, whichever is later.
On an entirely unrelated matter, I requested all tax returns and data for a few LLCs of mine. The time was 2015-current. A pretty little letter from the IRS came and said that it could find nothing to produce. So, I can’t rebuild any tax history, NOR can the IRS.
I am inventing my response to the IRS the next time it asks for info.

Kind of hard to believe…since there’s so much redundancy built into large-scale systems.
Data redundancy refers to the practice of keeping data in two or more places within a database or data storage system. Data redundancy ensures an organization can provide continued operations or services in the event something happens to its data -- for example, in the case of data corruption or data loss. The concept applies to areas such as databases, computer memory and file storage systems.
Data redundancy can occur within an organization intentionally or accidentally. If done intentionally, the same data is kept in different locations with the organization making a conscious effort to protect it and ensure its consistency. This data is often used for backups or disaster recovery.

I lose one check, and I could be audited, fined, and even jailed.
They do this... and it’s “Oopsy. Sorry about that.”
I’m convinced the records are routinely shuffled to the DNC.
Here is where your tax return goes to get lost!
I hope they lost my records : )
I made no money last year in the stock I have and I am doing pretty good this year but I have quite a bit of already taxed money so do not need to sell my stock that would trigger new taxes.
Below see the photos of the paperwork and Windows XP computers and COBAL!!!!

Why does the IRS need $80 billion? Just look at its cafeteria.

As of July 29, the IRS had a backlog of 10.2 million unprocessed individual returns. Blame the pandemic, sure, but also the agency’s embarrassingly outdated, paper-based system, which leaves stacks and stacks of returns cluttering shelves, hallways and even the cafeteria.
On the Pipeline, paper tax returns aren’t scanned into computers; instead, IRS employees manually keystroke the numbers from each document into the system, digit by digit.
#12 This is like “The Simpson’s” Chief Wiggum of Springfield who when he comes in on monday just deletes all the recorded 911 calls from the weekend....
#15 Data redundancy?
I have my backup drive on top of my pc under under my desk under my drink holder and a copy next to my electric car in the garage. All is safe.
