63% of new IRS audits were on folks making less than $200K.

Of course they are. That's where the bulk of the income sits in the US; between $50k and $200k.

I’d rather see the money be spent on something other than a lot of new IRA salaries, but I’m not worried about being audited. Why are you?

Listen, Fat. $400,000 and above. That’s not a joke….

Let’s not pretend the 87k new agents were only wanted by the Democrats plenty of Republicans voted for this as well.

We need to clean house in the Republican Party before we can focus on the Dems.

would RFK Jr. halt this?

but but but Trump is the clot king and ummm RFK Jr. is great ummmm Meatball is thee Man pro life, RFK Jr. is thee Man killing babies after birth-love from roadgator

They are probably doing it because they know those people are probably less likely to be able to afford lawyers good enough to get them off or to even help

Is that including correspondence audits? I'd argue those need to be thrown out to make this data relevant.

Simple logic should have prevailed but it didn't....

1.-People making over 400K a year have alot to lose and cheating on taxes seems like a high risk/low reward scheme. Most have accountants that likely aren't coloring outside the lines.

2. -The pool of folks making over 400K is not very deep compared to those making 200K and less. Less opportunity.

3. The dollar slippage is definitely with the 75K-250K crowd. There are lots of these people and most are likely doing their own taxes. This is your bread and butter for the IRS,

No way 86K hired agents were looking away from the area most recovery could come.
