About
In December 2006, President Bush signed the Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006 (“the Act’). Section 406 of the Act dramatically strengthened the IRS’s ability to pay larger rewards for information and for individuals to collect rewards by making it mandatory for the IRS to pay a minimum reward of 15% and a maximum reward of 30% of the amount ultimately collected by the IRS. These rewards would be paid to those individuals providing information regarding the underpayment of tax, interest and penalties, and additions to tax in excess of $2,000,000 and for which the IRS accepted such case under the reward program.
