IRS targets tax preparers as 1040 maze grows
The IRS warns of a shakeout for private tax preparers amid rising reliance on Form 1040A and free IRS filing services. It notes 80 million returns filed by non taxpayers last year, with $640 million in fees. Three thousand two hundred firms were found to have widespread errors or cheating in a 1972 spot check. The agency projects 32 million will file 1040A in 1973 due to higher standard deduction and abolished income ceiling. Block questions IRS strategy, urging registration and more auditing funds. The public, especially low income, still needs help locating deductions and credits.
