Tax return and other tax-related identity theft is a growing problem that CPAs can help their clients with -- both in taking preventive actions and in correcting problems after an identity thief has struck. Tax return identity theft delays legitimate taxpayer refunds because the return appears to be a duplicate return and may be a sign of other fraud or identity theft problems. IRS support to solve traditional and nonfraud problems may be delayed as well when IRS resources are diverted to combat identity theft. As trusted financial advisers, CPAs may be asked what to do if a client's identity is stolen. The CPA should consider advising or helping the client with several steps: 1. For tax and nontax identity theft, report the theft to the Federal Trade Commission. 2. File a report with the local police. 3. Close any affected bank and credit card accounts. 4. Respond to all IRS notices immediately.
