Treasury officials held a press call on Monday warning of a very “frustrating” tax season ahead, including delayed refunds—and psst, blame Republicans. Sorry, the biggest culprits here are the pandemic and the surge in federal payments to individuals.

The Internal Revenue Service usually enters tax-filing season with a backlog of a million returns, but Treasury says this year the agency faces “several times” more. The IRS closed last filing season with more than 35 million unprocessed returns—nearly five times as many as in 2019 and three times more than 2020.....

What total bull shit. All the IRS does is tell Treasury to write a check and they do it.

That would normally be my assumption, but in recent years (pre-plandemic) the "Service" has sent its victims notices crying that because of budget cuts communications will be (in effect) less prompt and focused, and it's worked out that way. Citizens under their scrutiny get a break, those with active cases suffer longer with their lives and money on ice.

Yeah, agents are lazy scum but have to bring in the booty or else.
