More notice before IRS contacts others
If enacted, the IRS would have to give you notice before asking other people about your taxes. You would get a reasonable chance and at least 45 days to respond first. You would be able to ask for more time if you show reasonable cause. If the IRS plans to ask others for info to figure your tax, it would list each item. That would apply when it has not asked you before and you could reasonably provide it. This would apply to notices sent 12 months after enactment. The IRS would be able to make exceptions to this listing when it decides the information is necessary.
