The IRS generally has three years from the date you file your tax return to audit it, commonly referred to as the "statute of limitations." However, this period can be extended to six years if the IRS suspects you underreported your income by more than 25%. In cases of fraud or if no return was filed, there is no statute of limitations, allowing the IRS to audit at any time. Thus, the frequency of audits for the same tax year is limited by these time frames.
