It is unclear to which departments in the Internal Revenue Service you are requesting this material. You will need to be more specific on the which departments. Please respond to me by COB on 01/30.

Ms. Mullins,

My apologies for the broad request. I'm looking for training material related to the investigation of tax evasion, tax fraud, tax havens, and similar ventures. I hope that narrows it down enough, but if not, please don't hesitate to ask again.

Best,
Todd Feathers
