How is the IRS supposed to know you paid me 5k last year via check???
How do you think people who don’t get w2 from their job have their income reported to the government? How do u think w2 get reported?
You have no clue how any of this actually works… stfu
All of those things you mentioned are edge cases which you would still be able to handle yourself if they auto filled everything for you.
I use an online tax service which scans my w2 and filles it out. It still gives me the option to edit stuff but I mostly just check to make sure things look good.
You’re acting like the filing that would come from the government would be the final record and you wouldn’t be allowed to correct it, which is not at all what people are suggesting.

Plus, audits will still be a thing.
How would they know now? It’s the same answer. Stop being a dick.
