The tax code is incredibly complex, which means unless your tax filing is trivial, you likely have misfiled.

The Secretary of the Treasury (not current one) was found to have misfiled his return. When asked, all he could say was he put the numbers into Turbo Tax, and this is what it spit out.

I have a family member who gets audited by the IRS every year. They've never found anything, but the harrassment continues year after year.

Once the IRS has these additional people, they will have to use them, and they will have to justify them.
