Establishes verification procedures for Electronic Federal Identification Numbers used in tax administration.
The problem
Current EFIN verification processes may lack standardized security checks, creating potential gaps in IRS tax preparer identification and oversight systems.
The proposal
The bill creates formal verification requirements and procedures for Electronic Federal Identification Numbers to improve IRS tracking and authentication of tax preparers.
The impact
Tax preparers, IRS administrators, and taxpayers through improved oversight of who prepares tax returns and handles sensitive tax information.
Standardized EFIN verification could reduce identity fraud and unauthorized access to tax systems. This protects both taxpayers and the integrity of IRS records.
Clearer verification rules help IRS monitor tax preparers more effectively. This can catch unqualified or fraudulent preparers faster.
Taxpayers may benefit from knowing their tax preparer has been properly verified. This builds trust in the tax preparation industry.
Tax prep businesses may face expenses implementing new verification procedures. Smaller firms could struggle more with compliance burdens than large companies.
IRS and tax preparers must invest time and resources in new verification processes. This could slow tax filing initially.
Developing and rolling out new verification systems takes time. Rules and procedures must be clearly written before businesses can comply.

Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
