Blocking the Adverse and Dramatic Increased Reliance on Surveillance Activities Act or the BAD IRS Activities Act This bill modifies requirements for third party settlement organizations to eliminate their reporting requirement with respect to the transactions of their participating payees unless they have earned more than $20,000 on more than 200 separate transactions in an applicable tax period. A third party settlement organization is the central organization that has the contractual obligation to make payments to participating payees (generally, a merchant or business) in a third party payment network. This reverses a provision in the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 that lowered the reporting threshold to $600 with no minimum on the number of transactions. The bill rescinds unobligated funds for Internal Revenue Service enforcement activities and operations support.
