摘要

The report contains the review of the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) controls over the accuracy of interest and dividend information that banks and other payers submit on computer tapes and disks. IRS matches this and other income information to income reported on tax returns to identify taxpayers who have underreported their income or have failed to file tax returns.
