The state may be doing the desk audit of these taxpayers due

Has anyone else seen a NIA "Notice of Intent to Assess" from
the Mass. DOR for low income taxpayers claiming the EIC? 30
day's to respond with requested information or the requested
current year refund is kept.

The first NIA this season was a single parent earning
minimum wage and this second one is for a family with one
parent on disability.

This seems to be an easy way for the state to raise
revenues, but it does not seem very ethical. I've not seen
any of these "desk audits" on anyone but these two low
income taxpayers.

Is it half time yet!
