2 Agenda Frustratingly Normal Now! Form 706 ACA Reform Where Are We Now? Crashed and Burned Identity Theft Update 3 Important EITC Case Tsehay v. Commissioner TC Memo The Commissioner does NOT ACQUIESCE in this decision Nonacquiescence to the holding that a taxpayer whose filing status is married filing separately is entitled to an earned income tax credit Issue: Whether a taxpayer whose filing status is married filing separately is entitled to an earned income tax credit (EITC) under I.R.C
3 Important EITC Case Tsehay v. Commissioner TC Memo The Tax Court held that the taxpayer s filing status was married filing separately, rather than head of household as claimed by the taxpayer, or single as determined by the Commissioner The Tax Court also held that the taxpayer had qualifying children and therefore was entitled to the EITC 32(d) provides that a married taxpayer who does not file a joint return is not entitled to an EITC There is no mention of 32(d) in the court s opinion; therefore, it appears that the Tax Court overlooked the prohibition disallowing the EITC to married taxpayers filing separately Accordingly, the Service will not follow the court s opinion in Tsehay in allowing an EITC to a married taxpayer filing separately 5 PTIN Update A motion to stay the court order prohibiting IRS from collecting PTIN fees The stay gives the government time to decide whether to appeal the decision $300 million in refund are at stake 6 3

6 Actions Need to Be Taken to Ensure Compliance With Prisoner Reporting Requirements and Improve Identification of Prisoner Returns July 20, 2017 Reference Number: Refund fraud associated with prisoner Social Security Numbers (SSN) remains a significant problem for tax administration The IRS identified more than 24,000 fraudulent tax returns using a prisoner SSN in Calendar Year 2015 The refunds claimed on those tax returns totaled more than $1.3 billion IRS processes do not effectively ensure that the Federal Bureau of Prisons and the State Departments of Corrections comply with prisoner reporting requirements TIGTA identified 861 prisons that reported to the Social Security Administration but did not report to the IRS TIGTA also identified 272,931 prisoners who were in Federal Bureau of Prisons or State Departments of Corrections who were not reported to the IRS Approximately $48 million in potentially fraudulent refunds were claimed by 16,742 individuals incarcerated in institutions that did not report to the IRS 11 Fraudulent Tax Returns Filed Using a Prisoner SSN for Calendar Years 2013 Through

8 myra Program Winding Down The U.S. Department of the Treasury announced that it will begin to wind down the myra program after a thorough review by Treasury that found it not to be cost effective Demand for and investment in the myra program has been extremely low American taxpayers have paid nearly $70 million to manage the program since 2014 The myra program was created to help low to middle income earners start saving for retirement Unfortunately, there has been very little demand for the program, and the cost to taxpayers cannot be justified by the assets in the program 15 myra program Winding Down Treasury will be phasing out the myra program over the coming months Participants in the myra program are being notified of the upcoming changes, including information on moving their myra savings to another Roth IRA Participants are encouraged to visit Currently, the myra program is no longer accepting new enrollments Existing accounts remain open and accessible, and individuals can continue to manage their accounts until further notice: individuals can make deposits, and their accounts will continue to earn interest 16 8

Category: Federal Tax 19 Deceased Tax Professionals Closing Out Authorities The Return Preparer Office checks the National Accounts Profile (NAP) monthly and changes Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN) statuses to deceased as appropriate There is no need to notify the Return Preparer Office when a PTIN holder is deceased. To close out a deceased tax professional s Centralized Authorization File (CAF) number, a surviving member of the professional s firm/business or in the event of a sole proprietor or single member LLC, the executor of that person s estate must send a written request (fax or mail) to the CAF unit identified in the Where to File chart on Form 2848 and Form 8821 instructions Once the CAF function receives the notice of the deceased tax professional in writing, action is taken to mark the CAF # owner as deceased 20 10
11 Deceased Tax Professionals Closing Out Authorities This action nullifies any and all authorizations listed on the CAF for the decedent For e file provider privileges and an Electronic Filing Identification Number (EFIN), if there are more Principals on the application, they can remove the deceased individual from the application If the death of this individual changes the structure of the business, the EFIN location must be closed and a new application submitted with the new structure indicated If the business is a sole proprietorship with only one person on the application, the fiduciary (personal representative, executor, or estate administrator) can contact e Help at to have the individual removed and the location closed Documentation proving that the individual is deceased is required 21 Canceling an EIN Closing The Account The IRS cannot cancel the EIN Once an EIN has been assigned to a business entity, it becomes the permanent Federal taxpayer identification number for that entity Regardless of whether the EIN is ever used to file Federal tax returns, the EIN is never reused or reassigned to another business entity The EIN will still belong to the business entity and can be used at a later date, should the need arise If the taxpayer receives an EIN but later determine they do not need the number (the new business never started up, for example), the IRS can close the business account To close the business account, send IRS a letter that includes the complete legal name of the entity, the EIN, the business address and the reason they wish to close the account 22 11
12 Canceling an EIN Closing The Account If the taxpayer has a copy of the EIN Assignment Notice that was issued when the EIN was assigned, include that when write to the IRS at: Internal Revenue Service Note Cincinnati, Ohio If the taxpayer made a Federal Tax Deposit or other Federal tax payment Is liable for any Business Taxes, or The IRS has notified them that a business tax return is due, they must file the appropriate tax return(s) before IRS can close the account 23 Information for Exempt Organizations If the taxpayer applied for an EIN for an exempt organization that (1) never applied for formal exemption (2) is not covered in a group ruling, or (3) never filed an information return, send a letter requesting the closing of the account to: Internal Revenue Service Attn: EO Entity Mail Stop 6273 Ogden, UT (or you may fax it to (855) ) State the reason the taxpayer wishes to close the account If the client has a copy of the EIN Assignment Notice that was issued when the EIN was assigned, include that in the letter Otherwise, be sure to include the complete legal name of the entity, the EIN, and the mailing address; for additional information on dissolving an exempt organization, call (877)
13 Frustratingly Normal Now! The tax professional filed a Form 706 to elect portability on on a timely filed return This is actually the first Form 706 we did file for portability! The surviving spouse died and we filed a Form 706 on timely We have called the IRS three times ( , and ) and they tell us it has not been assigned yet We are supposed to call back the middle of October 25 ACA Update On July 25, the Senate, by a margin of with Vice President Mike Pence casting the tie breaking vote, agreed to a motion to open debate on H.R. 1628, the American Health Care Act of 2017 (AHCA) The Senate will take up the House approved AHCA, with an open amendment process substituting the text of that bill with the Senate's Better Care Reconciliation Act (BCRA) Under the reconciliation process, there must be 20 hours of debate before holding a final vote 26 13
14 Identity Theft Update The IRS, state tax agencies and the tax industry have made significant progress in the past two years against tax related identity theft aimed at individuals but warned business identity theft is on the upswing Some of the increase in business and partnership return identity theft is fueled by cybercriminals' increasing focus on breaching tax professionals' systems and stealing client data So far for 2017, individuals reporting identity theft have declined sharply compared to the same time in 2016 and Identity Theft Update However, the IRS also saw an increase in identity theft involving business related tax returns So far for 2017, the IRS has identified approximately 10,000 business returns as potential identity theft through June 1, compared to about 4,000 for calendar year 2016 and 350 for calendar year 2015 While the number of businesses affected was relatively low, the potential dollar amounts were significant: $137 million for 2017, $268 million for 2016 and $122 million for
15 Identity Theft Update The affected returns included corporate returns (Forms 1120 and 1120S) and estate and trust returns (Form 1041) There also was an increase in identity theft related to the Schedule K 1 filings made by partnerships Tax preparers will see new trusted customer questions on these types of returns 29 FS , Information about Identity Theft Involving Businesses, Partnerships and Estates and Trusts Some of the new information people may be asked to provide when filing their business, trust or estate client returns include: The name and Social Security number of the company individual authorized to sign the business return. Is the person signing the return authorized to do so? Payment history Were estimated tax payments made? If yes, when were they made, how were they made, and how much was paid? Parent company information Is there a parent company? If yes who? 30 15
16 FS , Information about Identity Theft Involving Businesses, Partnerships and Estates and Trusts Additional information based on deductions claimed Filing history Has the business filed Form(s) 940, 941 or other business related tax forms? 31 Protecting Your Clients and Your Business from Business related Identity Theft During the 2017 filing season, the tax software industry began sharing data elements from tax returns with the IRS and states to help identity suspected identity theft business returns For 2018, the number of elements shared from tax returns will increase to better help identify those suspect returns Also for 2018, the IRS will be asking tax professionals to gather more information on their business clients. All of the data being collected assists the IRS in authenticating that the tax return being submitted is the legitimate return filing and not an identity theft return 32 16
