These statements are mainly issued regarding tax-exempt status of organizations, yet frequently involve deductions and tax credits. If, say, a firm takes a tax credit, and the IRS states the tax credit has not been applied properly, the firm is subject to fines.
Who knew tax codes could be so controversial?
