The Internal Revenue Service announced Monday that its agents will rarely make unannounced visits to households.
Under the policy change, IRS agents will no longer knock on doors but rather mail written letters to tell taxpayers to schedule a meeting with the agency. The IRS said the shift was made to “reduce public confusion and enhance overall safety measures for taxpayers and employees,” according to a news release.
The IRS will abandon most of its tens of thousands of unannounced visits per year while still retaining less than a few hundred of those visits for “extremely limited situations,” the release noted. Such cases include, but are not limited to, the service of a subpoena or seizure of assets.
