In the United States of America, an income tax audit is the examination of a business or individual tax return by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or state tax authority. The IRS and various state revenue departments use the terms audit, examination, review, and notice to describe various aspects of enforcement and administration of the tax laws.
The purpose of a tax audit or a return examination is to determine reports filed with the taxing authorities are correct. The
tax agencies identify and resolve taxpayer errors.
There are several different methods used to select individuals and businesses for examination.
Employers and financial institutions, among other organizations, are required by law to send documentation (W-2's and 1099's, for example) to the IRS. The IRS uses software to ensure that the numbers on a tax return match the numbers the IRS receives from third parties. If the documentation does not match, the return may be examined.
When a tax return is filed, the IRS uses computer software called the Discriminant Index Function System (DIF) to analyze the return for oddities and discrepancies. Once the return has been processed through DIF, it is given a score. If the DIF score is high enough (i.e. a large amount of oddities or discrepancies are found), that tax return may be selected for examination. The formulas the IRS use to create the DIF software and analysis are a closely guarded secret.
Filed tax returns are also subjected to an evaluation called the UIDIF, or the Unreported Income Discriminant Function System. This evaluation involves the analysis of tax returns based on a series of factors to determine a tax return's potential for unreported income. Returns that are found to have a high UIDIF score (i.e. the likelihood of unreported income) and a high DIF score may be selected for examination. The IRS formulas used to calculate UDIF are secret, but it is commonly thought that the IRS uses statistical comparisons between returns to determine UIDIF potential.
The IRS selects a certain amount of income tax returns to be audited each year through random selection. No errors need to be found for the Enforcement branch to examine a tax return. Random selection exams tend to be more extensive and time-consuming than other forms of review.
The practice of random selection has been a source of controversy for many years. The practice was suspended for a short time in the early 2000s amid criticism that the audits were too burdensome and intrusive. The IRS revived the practice in the fall of 2006.

Tolerância brasileira?
A internet vem ajudando a derrubar o mito de que nós, brasileiros, somos tolerantes às diferenças. Expressões preconceituosas predominam em postagens que revelam todo tipo de intransigência em relação ao outro, rejeitado por sua aparência, classe social, deficiência, opção política, idade, raça, religião etc.
Num primeiro momento, parece que a internet criou uma onda de intolerância. O fato, porém, é que as redes sociais apenas amplificaram discursos existentes no nosso dia a dia. No fundo, as pessoas são as mesmas, nas ruas e nas redes.
