Read MoreAs part of the ongoing efforts to improve tax compliance in high income categories, the IRS will begin dozens of audits on business aircraft involving personal use. The audits will be focused on large corporations, large partnerships and other high income taxpayers, and will scrutinize whether the use of jets is being properly allocated between business and personal reasons. “During tax season, millions of people are doing the right thing by filing and paying their taxes, and they should have confidence that everyone is also following the law,” said IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel, “These aircraftaudits will help ensure high-income groups aren’t flying under the radar with their tax responsibilities.”
These audits of corporate jet usage is part of the IRS Large Business and International division’s “campaign“ program and includes issue-focused examinations, taxpayer outreach and education, tax form changes and focusing on particular issues that present a high risk of noncompliance. “The IRS continues to increase scrutiny on high-income taxpayers as we work to reverse the historic low audit rates and limited focus that the wealthiest individuals and organizations faced in the years that predated the Inflation Reduction Act,” Werfel said. In addition to the work on corporate jets,the IRS has a variety of efforts underway to improve tax compliance in complex, overlooked high-dollar areas where the agency did not have adequate resources prior to Inflation Reduction Act funding.
