The IRS plans to get to know another 13,000 lucky taxpayers starting next month as part of the National Research Program. The successor to the old Taxpayer Compliance Measurement Program "audits from Hell," this kinder, gentler program relies more on matching and tends to focus on limited portions of the returns - audits from Heck, perhaps.
If you are one of the 13,000, you have the consolation of knowing that your pain will help the IRS to focus its efforts where there are real tax problems, which should mean less bother for compliant taxpayers. I know, that probably isn't that consoling.
