I'W 1 THE HARTFORD COURANT: Thursday, March 16, 199 D5 Auditors: IRS giving wrong answers 40 of time cxfT Downtown Hartford Suites Off ice I Retail General Accounting Office, an arm of Congress, is over how to judge the accuracy of answers that IRS telephone "assistors" give to some of the 62 test questions that will be posed clandestinely by other IRS employees 15,000 times this season. "Many of the answers IRS wants to score as 'right' are incomplete and potentially misleading," Jennie Stathis of GAO told the House Government Operations subcommittee on consumer affairs. "Such answers would increase the likelihood of taxpayers making errors." In reporting the 31 percent error rate, the IRS disregarded an agreement with the GAO over how the answers should be scored, Stathis said. Members of the subcommittee found the dispute troubling, but said they were even more concerned Associated Press i WASHINGTON The Internal Revenue Service is giving the wrong answer to telephoned tax questions 40 percent of the time not the 31 percent claimed by the IRS, government auditors said Wednesday. In a rare public airing of a dispute between government agencies, the IRS told a congressional panel that both figures can be justified, denied attempting to mislead anyone and said there is no pride in either error rate.

i "As far as the IRS is concerned, whether we are answering 30 percent of the questions wrong or 40 percent of the questions wrong, either number is absolutely unacceptable," said Robert LeBaube, IRS director of taxpayer services. "The dispute between IRS and the about the error rate. "We cannot tolerate a situation in which the very agency which is charged with the enforcement of our tax laws is responsible for providing erroneous information to taxpayers attempting to comply with those laws," said Rep. J. Dennis Hastert, R-Ill.

LeBaube advised taxpayers who call the IRS toll-free numbers to write down their question, the date and name of the person who provided the answer. If an answer leads to an incorrect tax return and the taxpayer produces such a record, Le-Baube said, the IRS will waive any penalty. The subcommittee, chaired by Rep. Doug Barnard is concerned about the dispute because the IRS and GAO, which in past years had done separate tests of the telephone-assistance program, 201 Ann Street Hartford, CT (Next to CMc Center) termined there should be a new category to cover about 8 percent of the answers that, while' not technically' correct, were sufficient to allow a taxpayer to file a correct return. Such an answer might be given after the assistor asked probing questions to assure the taxpayer was not leaving out information.

"For example," LeBaube said, "if the test caller says he is from Des Moines, Iowa, speaks with a Midwest accent and asks whether he can still be claimed on his parents' return, the assistor may probe to determine age, income, whether he was in school and how much support his parents provided. "However, the assistor probably would not ask whether he was a U.S. citizen. The failure to ask this might not meet our mutually agreed-upon standard," LeBaube added. "However, the assistor would in all probability be providing an answer that would allow the taxpayer to prepare his return correctly." After the GAO refused to change its scoring method to accept such responses as correct, the IRS decided on its own to count them as right.

Without informing the GAO, the IRS held a news conference last Friday to announce that assistors were giving the correct answer 69.2 percent of the time.

The IRS would make the test calls, using questions worked out with the GAO, and the GAO would monitor the results. The two agencies agreed on 62 questions and set up three categories for scoring the answers: "correct," the minimum standard IRS expected its assistors to meet; "correct and complete," and "incorrect." After a few weeks of conducting the test.

Overall, 43.3 million couples and individuals had filed their returns through last week, 2.2 percent more than the 42.4 million last year. The IRS has processed 29.3 million, also 2.2 percent more than the 28.7 million at this time in 1988 The long form has accounted for 21.1 million returns this year, or 49 percent of the total, compared with 21.7 million, or 51 percent, a year ago. Filings of the short Form 1040-A are up 7.5 percent, to 10.7 million, and use of the single-page 1040-EZ for single people is up 6.7 percent, to 11.4 million. The number of refunds is down 3 percent, to 18.4 million. The average refund is up 3 percent, to $827.

The IRS said 861,916 taxpayers had filed returns electronically through professional return preparers. That compares with 362,000 in the same period a year ago. 1390 72. 71ft 71ft-to SoRypf 2.60 21 21 21 21-ft Valer pr2.06 140 21ft Associated Press WASHINGTON The number of taxpayers itemizing deductions is down 2:5 percent this year, apparently because of the 1986 tax overhaul, the Internal Revenue Service said Wednesday.
