Over the past weeks, there have been numerous media articles
addressing the important subject of the integrity of the tax
system. Intuit today shared that, with the continued focus on the
growing industrywide challenge of cyberfraud during this tax
season, it expected to be and has been contacted by regulatory
authorities, including Congress, the Federal Trade Commission, and
the Department of Justice.
Intuit looks forward to cooperating with all such inquiries,
including formal requests for information it has received from the
DOJ. Intuit intends to demonstrate to those authorities the
company’s role in seeking to offer legitimate taxpayers the best,
most convenient and secure tax products in the industry.
“Cybersecurity and the integrity of the tax system have never
been more important than they are in this tax season,” said Dave
Williams, Intuit’s chief tax officer. “We understand our important
role in this issue as a market leader. We take it very seriously.
So too do the various government authorities who have a stake in
the tax prep process. We welcome the opportunity to share
information and cooperate with their inquiries.
“We are committed to fighting tax fraud, responding
appropriately to that fast-evolving challenge, and striving to do
the right thing by our customers in providing tax compliance
products and services anchored in principles of accuracy, fairness
and security,” concluded Williams.
Intuit will not provide additional details on the regulatory
inquiries until those inquiries are complete.
