IRS WILL Get You in 2026 (Protect Your Money)

If you’re a high-earning W-2 and think your taxes are “simple,” 2026 is the year that gets expensive.

The IRS isn’t just auditing millionaires anymore - automation and data matching now scan almost everything you do: W-2s, 1099s, brokerages, crypto, payment apps, even small side gigs.

That means more mismatch letters, more notices, and more people paying money they didn’t actually owe - just because the data didn’t line up.

In this video, I (Alec Friel, founder of Tax Saving Experts) break down what the IRS can see now, what they’re targeting in 2026, the letters you’re likely to receive, and how to protect yourself before any notice lands.

Over the last 12 months, we’ve helped 270+ high-income W-2 earners legally save over $12M in taxes - often after the IRS flagged preventable mismatches. Here’s how to get ahead of it.

What you’ll learn 👇
✅ What the IRS sees now (and why it matters): W-2s, 1099-NEC/MISC, 1099-B/DIV/INT, crypto trades/staking, rental income, cost basis - automatically cross-checked
✅ 2026 enforcement focus: AI-driven matching, platform reporting, small side income, cost-basis errors, forgotten forms, crypto misreporting
✅ Common IRS letters explained: mismatch notices, underreported income, and adjusted assessments - what they really mean and how to respond
✅ How to protect yourself before any letter arrives: organization, documentation, clean books, and aligning what you file with what the IRS already has
✅ 3 easy strategies that protect and build wealth:
• HSA as a stealth investment account (contribute pre-tax, grow tax-free, reimburse later)

• Start a legit side business to unlock §162 deductions W-2s can’t claim (laptop, software, travel, legit home office)

• Backdoor Roth IRA to get long-term tax-free growth - even when your income is too high for a direct Roth

Who this is for 👇
W-2 professionals earning $250K - $500K+
High earners who’ve received IRS notices - or want to avoid them
Busy pros who want proactive, year-round tax strategy (not April fire drills)
