Professor Robert Nassau on IRS Pursuing More High-Income Audits: “I don’t think the average person has a single thing to worry about in terms of heightened enforcement.”

Professor Robert Nassau, Director of the Sherman F. Levey ’57, L’59 Low Income Taxpayer Clinic, recently spoke with USA Today for their article, “Flush with new funding, the IRS zeroes in on the taxes of uber-wealthy Americans”.

Nassau commented, “I don’t think the average person has a single thing to worry about in terms of heightened enforcement.” He also noted that “I think the main reason they audit poorer people is, it can be done with minimal manpower.”
