How can we tell for certain if someone is being audited by the IRS???

[skip fox]

Is Trump's contention that he has 8 years of audits in progress? Is this even likely?

1. Information to IRS is not public unless you make it so.

Yes, you can be audited back several years but that does not mean you can't release your tax info.

2. guess there is more than one type of tax dodge

3. You cannot tell for certain

4. Therefore it could be a lie in whole or part.

Perhaps he has audits outstanding form 2014 and 2015, but doesn't want to release any. He could say 8 years are being audited.


Or perhaps he's not being audited at all.

5. All true

Because audits of individuals are not public. Or it could be nothing.
