This report determines whether: IRS’s commun’s. with taxpayers about recert. meet the needs of IRS & taxpayers; info. taxpayers are told to provide is reasonably easy to obtain & consistent with what IRS examiners accept in making recert. decisions; & examiners are consistent in how they assess supporting documentation provided by taxpayers.
