IRS urged by national taxpayer advocate to pause Kwong claims denials

National Taxpayer Advocate Erin Collins urged the IRS to halt denials of claims tied to ongoing Kwong litigation, arguing that taxpayers could lose rights or pursue unnecessary litigation while courts continue to consider the case. The IRS has received more than 275,000 refund and abatement claims related to Kwong, she said.
