IRS Requests QuickBooks Files for Audits
IRS accepts taxpayer records in electronic format instead of traditional paper books and records for audits.
Keeping accounting records in QuickBooks has become the standard in small businesses and IRS now would like to use the electronic data to enhance its examination process. IRS recently completed training for revenue agents on QuickBooks Premier Accountant Edition 2010; about 1,100 agents were already trained and are now being encouraged to request and accept taxpayers’ QuickBooks files for audit purpose.
Requesting a taxpayer's QuickBooks backup files and accounting records in electronic format is legal and taxpayers are not exempt from providing such electronic records, if such records exist. Business oweners should pay attention to this issue.
First-Time Homebuyer Credit Letter
IRS is notifying taxpayers who claimed the first-time homebuyer credit. There are different IRS letters for different situations including purchase of a home in 2008, 2009 or 2010, repayment schedule for homes purchased in 2008 or the sale or change in the use of the main home. Taxpayers receiving the letter are encouraged to tell their tax preparers or accountants about their first-time homebuyer credit.
