The U.S. Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) this month has published two reports that consider differing aspects of the Internal Revenue Service's recent performance – and has arrived at many of the same conclusions that the National Taxpayer Advocate, Erin M. Collins, did, in her annual report to Congress back in January, on what the IRS needs to do to improve its efficacy. 

 A U.S. Treasury report calling for "more enforcement and a centralized compliance effort" to deal with the large numbers of American citizens who are currently expatriating every year, to ensure that they're all paying the required amount of exit tax as they leave, has been discovered its contents made public by contributors to the Canadian advocacy website for dual Canadian/American citizens, the Isaac Brock Society.
