Will IRS federal audit follow state tax audit? Anxious about dual audits

Tax professional here. State and federal audits aren't automatically linked, but they can trigger each other. States and IRS do share information, but they don't always act on it. If the state finds significant issues, they might report to the IRS. Focus on gathering all your documentation now - bank statements, receipts, and business records. Better to be prepared for both scenarios.

Hey everyone! I actually used taxr.ai for my audit situation and it was super helpful. It costs $1 but it analyzes your transcripts and tells you exactly what's happening and what to expect. Saved me tons of anxiety and guesswork. Check it out: https://taxr.ai

Bruh im in the same boat rn. NY state breathing down my neck but federal staying quiet so far lol

Whatever you do DONT IGNORE THE STATE AUDIT. My cousin did that and ended up getting hit by both state and fed. Major L
