If the deductions, losses or credits on your return are disproportionately large compared with your income, the IRS may want to take a second look at your return. Taking a big loss from the sale of rental property or other investments can also spike the IRS's curiosity. Ditto for bad debt deductions or worthless stock.

Read More »As you're getting ready to file your tax return, you may be wondering about the chances that the IRS will audit your return. Your fear might be heightened, knowing that the Inflation Reduction Act passed last year gives the IRS $80 billion in extra funds over 10 years, with a large chunk of that money to be used by the agency for increased enforcement activities. Most people can still breathe easily, however, because the vast majority of individual returns escape the audit machine. In recent years, the IRS has been auditing significantly less than 1% of all individual tax returns. Plus, most audits are handled solely by mail, meaning taxpayers selected for an audit typically never actually meet with an IRS agent in person. Also, increased audits won't happen overnight. It will take the IRS time to hire experienced examiners and to train them to audit complicated tax returns. Most of the enforcement effects from IRS's $80 billion windfall won't be felt by taxpayers for at least a couple of years. But this doesn't mean it's a tax cheat free-for-all. The bad news is that your chances at the unenviable audit lottery escalate (sometimes significantly) depending on various factors, including the amount of income you report, the complexity of your return, the types and amounts of deductions or other tax breaks you claim, whether you're engaged in a business, or whether you own foreign assets. Math errors could also draw an extra look from the IRS, but they usually don't lead to a full-blown exam. The same goes for errors with refundable tax credits, such as the earned income credit and the refundable child credit. In the end, there's no sure way to predict an IRS audit, but these 19 audit red flags could certainly increase your chances of drawing unwanted attention from the IRS.
