High Income NonFilers

[Lee B]

Curious, TIGTA released a report saying that the IRS had found concentrations of High Income Non Filers

in western Texas, eastern New Mexico, Wyoming and northwestern Nevada.

I prepare a Partnership for a client of mine.  I have four years of K-1s for her Partner who has never filed a return in those four years.  It's not high income, but is SE income and a fair amount of money.  How can this not be caught?.  I file the Partnership return with the IRS and Wisconsin.  My client claims her Partnership and pays her taxes religiously.

Oil rich areas West Texas and Eastern New Mexico.   

Northwestern Nevada is barren north of Reno (pretty, but not very populated) and except for weed growers, I don't know who is getting rich up there.

Wyoming has some cattle and the price of beef is high right now, but ranching does not normally produce consistent high income (because they always need new trucks!).  

Curious indeed.
