ndrosenA few months ago, the IRS looked into my 2017 charitable deductions (not actually a full tax audit). Recently, I received a questionnaire from a firm working with the IRS; they wanted me to report on my interactions with the IRS, and how I was treated, so I filled out the questionnaire and mailed it in.
The questions were basically reasonable, even if I did not fully recollect the answers, but they were directed at small businessmen and the self-employed who had been audited. I used the space where the form asked for my recommendations to write that my examination had not been a full audit, and that I was a salaried employee, not self-employed or a small businessman.
There is a sort of humor in the IRS having a polling firm ask people how they liked their audits.
