The IRS’s Small Business/Self-Employed Division is commencing a one-year pilot program on April 1, 2017, examining Schedule F of Form 1040 for the 2015 tax year. The purpose: to verify claimed expenses (i.e., determine whether losses should be disallowed under the hobby loss rule, and whether other deductions were erroneously claimed, or claimed on the wrong form).
