- Table 16. Delinquent Collection Activities, Fiscal Years 2015 and 2016
- Table 17. Civil Penalties Assessed and Abated, by Type of Tax and Type of Penalty, Fiscal Year 2016
- Table 18. Criminal Investigation Program, by Status or Disposition, Fiscal Year 2016
IRS CI also offers its Fiscal Year 2016 statistics here and its cumulative statistics for the years 2007 - 2016, here.
I have been extracting tax crimes data from both the IRS Annual Data Book and annual report of statistics since 2005 and offer it here. I have been keeping in a spreadsheet a subset of these statistics since 2005 (note that I have two years not included in the IRS offering linked above). The spreadsheet is here. Here are the cumulative statistics for 2005-2016 and for 2012-2016:

I would appreciate hearing by comment or email from those having more knowledge of how DOJ Tax calculates its statistics and the differences between the IRS statistics and the DOJ Tax statistics.
