IRS budget shortfalls threaten taxpayers and revenue
Congress underfunds the Internal Revenue Service risking reduced taxpayer aid, flawed fraud detection, and weaker revenue collection as deficits rise. The national taxpayer advocate cites a 1.1 million refunds queue for fraud screening, a 72 percent rise, and growing reliance on imperfect software. The IRS collected about 2.3 trillion last year on an 11.8 billion budget, 300 billion below prior year and 1.5 billion less than requested.
