Hey ... maybe someone in the US House should propose a bill that sends money to Israel and balances that expenditure with cuts in the IRS budget so that they can’t audit people willy-nilly ...

Coming for the ones who sell old stuff at garage sales.

It’s not so much for the money, as the chilling power of intimidation that it has over the hard-working, honest public.

How about seizing all of george soros’ money? bill gates’ and jeff besos’ billions too.

Going to the U.S. Gubmint technique. They bring you in with no proof a crime was committed by you and then they start with bullsh*t stuff like gag orders and accusations hoping you say something they can label perjury or some other violation so they can fine you and throw your ass is prison.

Become familiar with the term “imputed income”. That will be the next vehicle for IRS abuse. They will also be assessing your standard of living and make a determination as to whether or not your income supports it. If they think not, they will add an estimated unreported income to that and tax it (with penalties).

Just as an aside, I had to deal with the IRS recently regarding an error (on their part) in the calculation of late fees and penalties over a corrected return (error on my part). The IRS had inadvertently credited a payment that I had made with my corrected return to the wrong year and overcharged me for a shortfall.

When I (nervously) called the IRS about the problem I was shocked at how pleasant and helpful they were. Shocked, I tell ya.

I made 2 calls and the 2 ladies I spoke with could not have been nicer.

Not only did they fix the problem, but one lady volunteered to apply on my behalf for a reduction in my penalties (not due to the IRS error).

I just got a letter last week saying that my application had been approved and I got a nice reduction in the amount owed.

I don't have any guns, but how do I get into one of those gun diversion programs that exonerates my taxes?

I have itemized for about 30 of the last 35 years.
House is paid for. With the increase in standard deduction. I feel many others are in the same boat. Kind of hard to audit when you take standard deduction.
Unless the irs thinks I am hiding income, which is pretty hard these days. Why threaten an audit. I don’t think it’s too difficult to prove info. On line and self tax software made doing taxes pretty easy. Plus. For $50 I always also take the audit defense.
Only trouble i ever had was with the college tuition tax credit a few years ago. The software and the schools weee wrong .
It was only after many many days of being on hold with a he irs did someone there explain what I needed to do.
Funny, I gave this info to the college and their financial aid sept said the irs was wrong and the school was right….. BS,
I finally submitted correct info and the credit was food

All the more reason to CUT their budget and support Israel with it, or at least replenish US ammo vs. chinee-commies.

Give me a break! They barely have enough people to answer the phones. 🙄

I’m hearing what’s left of the IRS is being housed over at the Treasury Department and will be utilized to help administer the coming change over to the sales tax.
