                        STATEMENT OF

 RICHARD L. FOGEL, ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR, GENERAL GOVERNMENT DIVISION

          STHE}INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE'S EFFORTS

              DIRECTED AT MULTIPLE FALSE FILER9

Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

     We are pleased to be here today to assist the Subcommittee as

it begins to look into a question of great concern to all of us--

the extent to which people are filing more than one tax return,

getting illegal refunds from the Internal Revenue Service, and

not being caught.

     At the outset we would like to note that no one knows how many

people may be engaged in such schemes. As an IRS offical told us, the

Government only knows about those it catches. It is the   unknown

that is of concern, as well as whether IRS has developed an effective

system to detect false refund schemes as quickly as possible.
