IRS Can Use Expanded Funding to Help Immigrants, Professor Sarkar Writes

In a Nov. 10 piece for the Washington Center for Equitable Growth, Professor Shayak Sarkar discusses how the IRS can use its expanded funding to help both the Treasury and the immigrant community. Sarkar argues that the Treasury should use its funds from the Inflation Reduction Act to improve access to Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers, which noncitizens rely on to fulfill their tax obligations.

Shayak Sarkar's scholarship addresses the structure and legal regulation of inequality. His substantive interests lie in financial regulation, employment law, immigration, and taxation.
