The tax
software industry, IRS, and state tax administrators will be holding their
kick-off meeting to discuss ways to address identity theft, refund fraud, and
data security on April 2, 2015 in Washington, D.C. The goal of these working
groups is to collaborate on finding solutions that will help mitigate identity
theft in the tax system.
Petz
Enterprises is glad to be part of this discussion and happy that IRS
Commissioner Koskinen is making identity theft a priority.
Our goal has
been, and will continue to be, bringing whatever resources are necessary to
help combat tax related identity theft. By working with the IRS and state tax
agencies, we will continue to be at the forefront of this issue.
Our
customers have benefited from the security features that we have included in
our product to help protect them from this very serious problem, and we will continue
to look at adding more in the future.
We are
looking forward to working with the IRS, State governments, and other members
of the tax industry to help address the issue of identity theft and security in
these working groups over the next few months.
