2 Triggers that can cause a IRS Audit:
1. Taxpayers who are Self Employed or Independent Contractors, especially if they show continued years of no profits. Schedule C losses are deductible against other ordinary income such as compensation or interest, therefore the IRS pays closer attention. Visit us at http://www.kgcpa.net/custom2.php to learn more about sole proprietorship (schedule c) filings.
2. Charitable contributions, especially non-cash contributions. Upon audit, a taxpayer will need to provide proof such as receipts for charitable deductions, and sometimes appraisals as well for non-cash donations.
