8:52- INCOME TAX AUDITS PLUMMET AS IRS LOSES AGENTS TO BUDGET CUTS

Experts agree that wealthy Americans and large corporations were the biggest winners from last year's sharp cut in tax rates. But these groups are also benefiting from another shift in the nation's tax system: When it comes to an IRS audit, they have little to fear. Of the roughly 504,000 people who earned at least $1 million in 2018, just over 3 percent were audited by the agency - down sharply from previous years, according to new data out of Syracuse University. Since 2010, the number of audits of millionaires has declined by half.

The internal IRS data, obtained from the agency by Syracuse's Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) under a court order, also suggests big companies are getting a pass.

As this story points out, the number of experienced IRS revenue agents has fallen by more than a third since 2010, meaning there are fewer agents to conduct audits. No one wants to pay more than their fair share of taxes. You also don't want to tempt fate by becoming overly creative with your deductions.
