This bill would require the Secretary of the Treasury to set up a pilot program, within 180 days, to use artificial intelligence (AI) to find inaccurate tax returns. The pilot would target returns inaccurate because of identity theft, fraudulent claims for tax credits, deductions, or refunds by individuals or businesses, and returns improperly prepared by a third party who is not properly identified. The pilot must run at least 18 months and no more than 2 years. Within 180 days after the pilot ends, the Comptroller General must report to the House Ways and Means Committee and the Senate Finance Committee on: the total amount of improper refunds or reduced tax liability detected because of the pilot; the total amount recovered by the Government because of the pilot; and the accuracy of the AI tools used.
If you file taxes, this bill would start a government pilot using AI to flag potentially inaccurate returns. The pilot itself does not change tax rules or filing requirements. Congress would receive a report on how much fraud or improper refunds the pilot detected, how much was recovered, and how accurate the AI was.
