Congress can request tax documents, they’ve done it before.
I could be wrong, but I believe that Congress can request tax documents as a part of drafting legislation as opposed, say to publicly embarrass, shame, or destroy a political adversary. Except for impeachment, Congress is not the place to prosecute alleged crimes. See the prohibition on bills of attainder.
What do you thing Congress’s real motive is in this case?
