The IRS has officially launched a new unit that it states will “more efficiently conduct audits” of entities known as pass-through businesses.

The initiative targets businesses that pay no taxes on their revenue. Instead, the income generated is passed on to owners who then file taxes based on their individual taxation rates. Pass-through businesses include sole proprietorships, partnerships, limited liability companies, and S-corporations.
