 WHY'S and WHEREFORE'S #4 By The Informer

This Series concerns 26 USC 6020 where the "secretary can make a return if you don't. Because most of this is government writing, the grade level is 14.24 years. The comprehension level is 70 . What this means is that a 2nd grade reading book read by you would be 100. The harder to comprehend the lower the score. Insurance contracts are forbidden by the industry to be written lower than a 40. Earnest Hemmingway's books were written at a 5th grade level with a comphending level of about 80. I lifted just this portion from the entire document down to the first section and it reads at an 8th grade level. That means my 8th grade writing was raised to a 14 grade level which means the government writing must be about 22 year grade level to make an average of 14 years of education to read this #4 Series. So you see how difficult the lawyers that wrote the regs have made it. That is why even the supreme court hardly ever has a nine to zero ruling all the time. Even they can't determine the law and half has to guess one way and the other half guesses the opposite.

By now you should have a pretty good idea how to handle yourself in interpreting the regulations that the IRS agent uses to entrap you into CODE pleadings. I have bolded and made larger those phrases that are important. I am going to let you decide if you are the "taxpayer" they are coming after. I want you to pull each and every one of the codes that are bolded and enlarged type in section 70.42 and read them and compare them to the regulation. Are you that "taxpayer?" When reading the CODE you tend to believe so. But how about when you read the regulation? Are you going to CODE plead ever again? Isn't it in your best interest to pull the Statute at Large and see if Congress actually used the magic words of enactment?

You can or should be able to phrase your questions to the IRS when you ever get a letter demanding something from you. Who is the only "anyone" that is to produce books and records according to the regulations? Now read the CODE and see if it is as explicit. This is the making of a return under the Substitute For Return (SFR) that you will see as a TC 150 on the IMF they have on you. Also, if a true and valid Notice of Deficiency was ever presented to you a TC 494 code would appear on the IMF. I will say that 99 percent of you reading this, have no such code on the IMF they keep on you. You may well have received what LOOKS like a Notice of Deficiency, but it is not valid. .§ 70.42 Returns prepared or executed by regional directors (compliance) or by other ATF officers.

(a) Preparation of returns—(1) General.
If any person required by provisions of 26 U.S.C. enforced and administered by the Bureau or by the regulations prescribed thereunder to make a return fails to make such return, it may be prepared by the regional director (compliance), the Chief, Tax Processing Center, or other authorized ATF officer provided the person required to make the return consents to disclose all information necessary for the preparation of such return. The return upon being signed by the person required to make it shall be received by the regional director (compliance) or the Chief, Tax Processing Center, as the return of such person. (2) Responsibility of person for whom return is prepared. A person for whom a return is prepared in accordance with paragraph (a)(1) of this section shall for all legal purposes remain responsible for the correctness of the return to the same extent as if the return had been prepared by such person.

If any person required by provisions of 26 U.S.C. enforced and administered by the Bureau or by the regulations prescribed thereunder to make a return fails to make a return at the time prescribed therefor, or makes, willfully or otherwise, a false or fraudulent return, the regional director (compliance), the Chief, Tax Processing Center, or other authorized ATF officer shall make such return from the officer's own knowledge and from such information as the officer can obtain through testimony or otherwise. (2) Status of returns. Any return made in accordance with paragraph (b)(1) of this section and subscribed by the regional director (compliance), the Chief, Tax Processing Center, or other authorized ATF officer shall be prima facie good and sufficient for all legal purposes.

Subpart K—Examination of Books and Records
§ 179.151 Failure to make returns: Substitute returns.

(53 Stat. 437; 26 U.S.C. 6020)

NOW FOR A REAL LESSON. PULL 53 STAT. 437 AND COMPARE WITH 26 USC 6020.
