Unannounced IRS visitors likely are thieves

As far back as 2023 the IRS had announced an end to revenue visits and surprise visits by collection officers to businesses and homes.

Instead, the IRS encouraged in-person meetings at its offices, where it started building more interview rooms. The IRS also started encouraging meetings at the taxpayer’s or tax pro’s office—after arranging the meeting in advance.

Rare exception: There still may be unannounced IRS visits to encourage noncompliant firms to resolve delinquent employment tax issues and similar problems.

Just in case: A legitimate IRS employee carries two official forms of identification and will not demand immediate payment—in fact, will not even personally accept payment by credit card, gift card—and never ever ask for a check made out to the so-called IRS employee who showed up.

Great way to start my Saturday morning! Went to Christa Dawson's (owner of, Leave It In The Sand), to connect with Christa and get an education on her horses. She has been around horses most of her life and is certified in equine therapy. She is making a difference with people and horses.

My 14 year old grandson, Levi, was my companion for a few hours today. He learned how to care for the horses: Hal & Jake and play with Flynn, her black, gentle german shepherd.

I asked Levi what he thought when we were ready to leave. He said, "It was really fun. I've never touched or truly been close to a horse."

Christa it was great getting to know you and spend time with your horses and dog. Levi may take you up on poo duty sometime 🙃

Can't wait to get together again in the future 🧡🐴

I have more photos but waiting for Levi to send them to me.
