Since GAO's first audit of IRS's financial statements in fiscal year 1992, a number of weaknesses in IRS's financial management operations have been identified. In related reports, GAO has recommended corrective action to address those weaknesses. Each year, as part of the annual audit of IRS's financial statements, GAO not only makes recommendations to address any new weaknesses identified, but also follows up on the status of weaknesses GAO identified in previous years' audits. The purpose of this report is to assist IRS management in tracking the status of audit recommendations and actions needed to fully address them. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-393/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-393.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-393/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-393.pdf GAO-05-393 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-393 Other Written Product GAO-05-393; Internal Revenue Service: Status of Recommendations from Financial Audits and Related Financial Management Reports; Financial management Financial management systems Internal controls Tax administration systems Financial statement audits Audit recommendations Corrective action Volume 110 Page 3009 110 Stat. 3009 Volume 118 Page 3 118 Stat. 3 Public Law 104-208 Public Law 107-300 Public Law 108-199
