IRS Complaining About Budget Cuts

And a delay in tax returns.

Of course it's the GOPs fault and it's the fault of the tax payer because they are calling the 1800 number for help. This is typical bullshit.

That first paragraph should read:

"American taxpayers could be in for a “frustrating season” when it comes to filing their taxes this year due to delays caused by the government, Treasury Department officials warned on Monday."

The government will cause the delays, not 'covid'.

Or the delays are caused because the tax code is too fucking complicated. Example, I fill out my W2 honestly so the gov should take exactly what I own, nope I always owe more. How is that possible?

This is one advantage to running my own corp. Whenever I do my taxes, I just withhold what I pay the IRS in Q1 of the following year. So for example say I owe them 5k in Q1 in estimated taxes that didn't go via payroll. If they owe me 4k, I take that as a credit on my current year in taxes. I give myself the rebate. I don't need to wait on them to give me my money back.

This is one reason I really dislike going back to full time and dropping contracting, and it will be difficult for a company to make me do so.

I thought biden was going to increase their budget so he could hire thousands of new agents to harass white nationalists.

Yes ... What happened to the millions they were going to pour into the IRS for the hiring of a few thousand auditors to catch those tens of thousands of billionaires who cheat!?

If you work out your taxes correctly you will owe them a buck or two every year. Banking a refund is poor strategy

If you contract, sometimes this number has some flux to it. You have to be a little ahead and take the excess as credit on next year to avoid dropping below 90%, especially when you get paid in whole months at a time.

Contracting and doing extra per diem work can make that tough

How about we just call the whole thing off this year then.

No delays, nobody will be overworked, it's a win-win.

IRS cases rarely become criminal ones, but don't forget that the IRS does have a criminal investigation division--with guns.

Great topic to start the morning.

I bet it costs >$100 for every $1 they bring in through auditing and enforcement.
