Temporary regulations authorize more tax return information disclosures to the U.S. Census Bureau. The IRS has issued temporary regs that authorize the disclosure of certain items of tax return information to the Census Bureau. The tax code authorizes the disclosure of such information if needed. The request includes: certain business tax return data involving expenses, deductions and dividends; whether a business closed or stopped paying wages; and whether a business is a seasonal employer that doesn’t file employment tax returns every quarter of the year.
