Criminal Investigation Division (IRS-CID)

INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION DIVISION (IRS-CID):

... Since the inception of IRS Criminal Investigation, our mission has been to follow the money. And almost from the inception, the question of "Why is IRS involved?" has been asked. The fact is, no matter what the source, all income earned, both legal and illegal, has the potential of becoming involved in crimes which fall within the investigative jurisdiction of IRS CI. It is the objective of CI to utilize the broad authority of Title 26 and 31, tax, currency reporting and forfeiture and Title 18 money laundering, conspiracy and forfeiture to identify, investigate and prosecute the most significant tax, currency and money laundering offenders; and to pursue the assets of those offenders both domestically and internationally for criminal tax and asset forfeiture purposes. ... http://www.treas.gov/irs/ci/docfinancialcrimes.htm
