    I believe they do need more agents and updated systems but not to the tune of 87K. Just based on my recent experience with them. Agent was very helpful but told me they had millions of filings still to process so it would be months before things would finally be wrapped up.

    Charlie Kirk said the other day that the IRS will be focusing on lower income and middle class taxpayers because they frighten more easily and don't put up the same kind of fight during audits as do rich people. Even people making $25-30,000 a year can expect to be audited, according to Kirk.

    I'm not saying that's what will happen, only that Kirk said it.
    It would be stupid. What kind of income do they expect to get from say s $50-$60k earner? $500-$600? How much are they paying the auditor to audit that book?

    Need to pin this sh*t on the every dem in Congress and the dementia patient. Will be a bureaucratic nightmare and from the charts, they are going after the little people. Tax code is unforgivingly complicated along with the various forms and crappy IRS database systems. Just getting them trained up will be a nightmare. Geezus.

    Even bootlicking Caesarist Regime defender AllahPundit has a problem with Biden hiring 87,000 new tax lawyers [actually very few will be attorneys or CPAs] to audit the lifeblood out of the middle class. As one Trusted Insider said of Biden, "He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance."

    The left is taking a bizarre stance: If you haven't committed any crime, you... shouldn't worry about cops demanding, on penalty of fine and imprisonmen, that you answer their questions and show them your papers.

    Does this thinking extend to all law enforcement or just the swarms of Officers sent out to eat out the substance of the people?

    Speaking from experience, they will bleed you for every fucking dime you have. They relish the opportunity to go back 7 years and find where you should have paid another $1,100 and then tack on interest.
    That happened to me years ago and at that time I was making around $100,000. Get used to it because that is what socialist/communists do. Do you think that fucking idiot biden paid taxes on his 10% for the big guy? Not a chance.

    I have a customer who designs fences and decks for upper middle and wealthy people. His annual income is around $250K. During an audit he was out quoting jobs and his wife mistakenly offered up the books to an IRS agent performing an audit. She fucked up and don't even start with the "she should have known better" because this is a small family owned business that provides a quality service for homeowners, they were just trying to make it and started the company from scratch. The agent found that they had mistakenly not paid their full amount of workers comp. An honest mistake as they were unaware of exactly what the law was. They paid in $50K a year and were supposed to be putting in somewhere close to 75K. The IRS is now demanding $500K in back taxes which includes interest which will put the company out of business. These are not rich people. The legal fees to defend themselves alone will put them out of business and force them to declare bankruptcy putting 24 people out of work. Now imagine 87,000 more IRS agents prowling for their next piece of destruction so that the fed can promote them.

    A lot of entrepreneurs are great at providing a product or service, many of them are not good business people. They aren't trying to defraud the country on taxes, they are just ignorant.

    Agreed it’s all the other things besides the actual income taxes that they want.

    There is a of fraud with EITC. It's not something that would require a lot of time and would likely be done via mail. When people think of a audit they envision in person meeting with and agent. That's actually rare. It's mostly limited to a couple of things and done through the USPS.

    That doesn't make sense. Workers comp is a state tax. Why were the feds looking at that?

    As someone who has been audited like 5-6 times, I agree it’s not related to the Feds. Feds wouldn’t ask for that money themselves, but you’d miraculously get a random state audit right after zeroing in on that specifically. Been through probably 10 state audits as well.

    Only finding I’ve ever had is a $115 penalty on some casual labor bullshit.
