You Can Have The Information You Need To Save Yourself From An Embarrassing IRS Audit! Instantly download the actual Manual developed by the IRS to train its auditors in the Farm Hobby Losses With Cattle Operations And Horse Activities Industry! Uncle Sam's Tax Audit Assistant on IRC Section 183 Farm Hobby Losses has been developed to provide guidance to Revenue Agents and Tax Auditors in pursuing the application of IRC Section 183 with respect to horse activities and cattle operations.
Historically, IRC Section 183 has been a difficult issue for tax auditors to pursue. The development of the issue is a fact-gathering initiative. The application of IRC Section 183 is based upon the examiner's understanding of the taxpayer's industry, as well as the taxpayer's mode of operation within the industry.
IRC Section 183 and the accompanying Treasury Regulations do not provide absolute definition, but serve to provide guidance in formulating the facts into a conclusion. Hazards of litigation have also been a deterrent toward the pursuit of IRC Section 183. As a result, auditors have been reluctant to allocate exam time. This has now changed.
Uncle Sam's Tax Audit Assistant will help to further develop the weaker areas within these cases and reduce the hazards of litigation. While IRC Section 183 has been referred to as the Hobby Loss section of the Internal Revenue Code, examiners should refrain from such terminology. The actual language of the Code refers to "Activities Not Engaged In For Profit."
Some taxpayers resist this "hobby" terminology and the implications therein. For whatever reason taxpayers have engaged in these activities, albeit for pleasure of a hobby or the tax benefits derived, these activities were not engaged in for the sake of deriving a profit.
