Question: Finding out my irs collections district?

How do I find this out based on my past 3 years tax returns? I need this for an application.

Thanks!
What 800 number? I need it for an application, not for my return. Anyone actually know how to get it rather than just talking for the sake of talking haha?
Exactly what I stated. It’s a federal government application so it’s obviously does exist.

Answer: There is no such entity as an IRS Collections District. Even if there was, it would be a pointless piece of information for an application for anything. What does the question really state?

Question: How do I get the IRS to fix an error they made (data entry) on a 1099?

I made $640 for a contract job. They have it entered as $64,000. I have sent them the 1099 and a letter (two months ago). I still haven’t had the issue resolved (nor have I gotten my refund).

Answer: Somebody got the decimal point in the wrong place. Eventually it will get resolved. Unless you get a bill based on $64,000 just hang tight.

Question: Has anyone ever calculated the odds of being audited by the IRS?

Answer: The IRS uses a secret formula called a DIF score to select returns for audit. Certain features of a return will increase you chances of audit. Having income over $100,000 especially if you also have a side business that lost money. Owning a Sub-S corp. Showing a low income but having lifestyle requiring a higher income. Publicly revealing your true income can get you audited. Like having your name in the paper bragging how you make $5,000 per week in the latest MLM direct sales program while showing only $20,000 on your tax return for the whole year.
