How the IRS works non-filers.

Mike Sullivan

IRS Enforcement of Non-Filers.

IRS has different ways to identify non filers. IRS can find out through spouses, businesses, other State or Government  Agencies and through W-2, 1099 matches.

The only obligation that the IRS has is to attempt to contact the taxpayer at the last known address.

So once non-filer taxpayers have been identified, “soft notices” such as the CP 5919 or CP25920 are sent notifying the taxpayer that a return(s) has not been filed.

As to the individual taxpayer, the notice informs the non-filer that he will need to contact the IRS if he doesn’t believe a tax return is due, or to seek assistance with filing and payment of tax if one is due.

Once the soft notice letter is sent with no response received, a second letter or notice similar to (Letter 4903) is sent prior to an SFR being prepared and a tax assessed.

If the IRS does not hear from the taxpayer(s), and it already has information available, through Forms W-2, 1099, etc., it will create an SFR or Substitute For Return as the next step. Sometimes it may attempt to contact the taxpayer by telephone, or it may assign the case to the field.

The IRS uses the SFR ( substitute for return ) as a last alternative only after making attempts to contact the taxpayer by phone or in person since those approaches may be more effective.
When the SFR is sent to the taxpayer, it may prompt the taxpayer to file a correct return since an SFR does not allow for deductions, exemptions, credits, etc., and simply shows the income that the IRS has confirmed from third party input. IRS will do you no favors when they prepare the return. You will owe the highest tax.

Overinflated tax numbers are provided creating an SFR will be the impetus for the taxpayer to come to talk to the IRS.

If the SFR has been prepared and the taxpayer is still not in contact with the IRS, the IRS has other programs that can be used to assist in developing and maintaining taxpayer compliance to pay the tax assessed by the SFR, including the Withholding Compliance and the Refund Hold programs.

In combination, the SFR, Withholding Compliance and Refund Hold programs not only provide a way to pay the assessment, but further encourage the taxpayer to contact the IRS or to file a return in hopes of obtaining a refund based on actual deductions and credits that are not available through the SFR program.
