Accounting Instructor Kevin Matthews comments on the IRS' taxpayer service in this piece for Accounting Today.

The IRS has come under fire in recent weeks following the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes $80 billion in funding for the agency over the next 10 years, leading to claims the IRS will use these funds to pursue middle-class taxpayers. Not so, according to JK Aier, senior associate dean of academic affairs and global engagement, in an interview with Accounting Today.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 will provide almost $80 billion to the Internal Revenue Service during the next 10 years to support a variety of expanded functions, including technology updates and administrative improvements that should make it easier for tax professionals and individual taxpayers to communicate with the IRS, according to accounting instructor Kevin Matthews in Accounting Today.

The Inflation Reduction Act includes increased IRS funding, which will eventually lead to more audits. But that's not necessarily a bad thing according to JK Aier, senior associate dean of academic affairs and global engagement, to Bloomberg. “Enforcement is always seen as ‘the taxman is coming for you,’ but it doesn’t necessarily need to have a negative connotation.”
