I just read about it today. Why is that not breaking news ? It's not an old story. It's a new story that just broke. What better topic to post in ?

If you post a new thread in breaking news there is a format that we request you use. I think it should be in the rules section.

If you post a story with just the link, either General Discussion or the Politics forum are where we ask you to do so.

Breaking news is the home page of CC to the public,what is posted there needs to be news stories of significance.
I understand that is a judgment call at times and much latitude is given but not everything a person reads should be posted there.
Also it is requested that a relevant picture associated with the story be posted if at all possible.

Full Title:IRS Sent $46,378,040 in Refunds to 23,994 ‘Unauthorized’ Aliens at 1 Atlanta Address

Quote
(CNSNews.com) - The Internal Revenue Service sent 23,994 tax refunds worth a combined $46,378,040 to “unauthorized” alien workers who all used the same address in Atlanta, Ga., in 2011, according to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA).

That was not the only Atlanta address theoretically occupied by thousands of “unauthorized” alien workers receiving millions in federal tax refunds in 2011.

In fact, according to a TIGTA audit report published last year, four of the top ten addresses to which the IRS sent thousands of tax refunds to “unauthorized” aliens were in Atlanta.

The IRS sent 11,284 refunds worth a combined $2,164,976 to unauthorized alien workers at a second Atlanta address; 3,608 worth $2,691,448 to a third; and 2,386 worth $1,232,943 to a fourth.

The inspector general’s 2012 audit report on the IRS’s handling of ITINs was spurred by two IRS employees who went to member of Congress "alleging that IRS management was requiring employees to assign Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITIN) even when the applications were fraudulent.” -

Is that a clue to whom was the actual recipients of the fraudulent returns?
