Nowhere near 48% of the population earns enough wages for EITC but still under 25k. It's way way way way overrepresented in audits. Nearly half of the audits are aimed at the poorest workers.

------- re: below due to throttling-----------

.... they were audits according to IRS. This is from the FOIA'd audit numbers from IRS via TRAC.

They are not audits. They are automated notices to idiots trying to claim the same child tax credit in multiple returns or hiding income(not reporting their w2 lol) to claim the EITC
