Combat Tax Refund Fraud

The problem of tax refund fraud is growing and cost taxpayers billions by paying out fraudulent refunds. The solution would be to require all companies to submit W2 data to the IRS prior to January 20th every year so that the IRS has the ability to check returns for fraud. Also there should be a process for disputing refunds, if someone finds a fraudulent return was filed under their name and SSN prior to the payment of the refund there should be a number to call and immediately deal with the issue since there usually is a delay between filing and when the refund is sent. This would allow citizens to stop the payment of a fraudulent refund and also reduce the time it takes to receive the refund they are entitled to.
