This year I'm writing about the IRS and tax evasion by wealthy people, large corporations and asset managers. I've added my mailing address to my profile. Never hesitate to send a letter!
In the wake of recent tax avoidance & #moneylaundering scandals, @Ethics_Board has released new guidelines urging accountants "to take public interest into account when working on tax planning for clients" @ICIJorg discusses the impact of this update: bit.ly/4aOEWF1
From @WSJ: The Heathrow airport doesn’t scan outbound luggage for cash. The Dubai airport welcomes sacks of it, no questions asked. Such loopholes allow billions of dollars to fly out of the U.K. and elsewhere into international money-laundering operations.buff.ly/4d8vEFi
Following years of tax scandals, including ICIJ’s #PandoraPapers and #ParadisePapers, a global accountants’ ethics board released a new set of standards for tax professionals, aimed at rebuilding public and institutional trust in the industry. buff.ly/3Jvyruz

The IRS was 12 times more likely to audit an individual making less than $25,000 than a partnership in 2020. In 2018, ProPublica reported the agency turned much of its firepower on Americans making below $20,000 a year instead of far wealthier taxpayers. buff.ly/3Jpp3ZC
