Tax Commission reminds tax preparers to act quickly following tax software security breaches

The Idaho State Tax Commission encourages tax professionals to remain vigilant against cyberattacks and software breaches.

Tax professionals with questions or who need to report a suspected software compromise should contact the Tax Commission immediately. Prompt reporting allows the Tax Commission to identify affected returns, prevent fraudulent refunds when possible, and assist taxpayers whose information might have been compromised.

Contact the Tax Commission:

• • Email document details to fraud@tax.idaho.gov, or
  • Call (208) 332-4060

Early notification is critical to protecting Idaho taxpayers. It helps the Tax Commission prevent fraudulent tax refunds from being issued to fraudsters and saves taxpayer money. We appreciate your help as we work to keep Idaho taxpayers’ money safe.
