Officials that the Government Accountability Office (GAO) interviewed inside and outside of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) generally agreed on the potential major benefits of the Compliance Assurance Process (CAP) to taxpayers and IRS as reflected in its goals. These goals include saving IRS time and resources to use for other audits while ensuring compliance, and reducing taxpayer burden while increasing certainty on tax amounts now owed. This book focuses on the corporate tax compliance and the IRS determining whether its streamlined corporate audit process is meeting its goals as well as discussing the compliance assurance process receiving favourable feedback.
