The IRS’s ability to match information and identify non-filers has never been greater. Before 2020 there were more than 15 million taxpayers in the IRS Collection Division inventory, and the IRS has announced it has identified and will pursue more than 10 million non-filers. COVID exacerbated all of this, creating an army of struggling taxpayers and small businesses. There has never been a better time to add IRS Representation to your practice and help taxpayers resolve their back tax issue!
