Transaction Code
•
Transaction Codes are a three digit code that the IRS
places into your IMF records which have a specific
meaning.
•
With only three digits the IRS can only have 999
definations to go with those codes.
•
Well the IRS never have enough money or codes so
they took one of these Transaction Codes 971 and used
it as a way to get another 999 codes
•
When a TC 971 is used they also include a CD Code or
“Action Code” which has a specific meaning.

Typical Decoding 425
•
Did you find the TC 425 in the 6209 Manual?
•
Section 8-18 Page 128 of 613 in 6209 Manual
•
What does it say?
•
The purpose of this Transaction Code 425 is to
overwrite and delete from the record the TC 424, which
allows for a second examination while appearing to
document one examination. Another sequence of
erroneous postings to my IMF is the TC 424 and TC
425 entries.
What is a 424?
•
It is a Examination Request Indicator.
•
It Deletes Records in the DIF file.
•
It can be generated for IMF when IRP Under-Reported
case is referred to exam
How a SFR is Created
•
•
•
•
An SFR is created by issuing an AM424 with Push Code 036 to
establish the skeletal substitute for return in the IMF.
The AIMS system then queries IMF for matching data and if
found, sends other details back to AIMS to create a complete AIMS
record. The AM424 updates the IMF with TC424 and the
complete AIMS record returned, updates the IMF with TC420 and
TC 150.
Proof that a TC424 was issued is the presence of the TC425, which
in the IMF, is caused by the issuance of an AM424D.
The AM424D will then delete the TC424 from the IMF leaving the
trace TC425 in the IMF. Thus, the TC 150 is created, TC420 is
recorded, and a TC425 is proof of the AM424 issuance being
deleted. This matches completely with my IMF, which has the
following entries:
