Per the Taxpayer First Act, a "qualified disclosure" means a disclosure under section 6103(c) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 of returns or return information by the IRS to a person
seeking to verify the income or creditworthiness of a taxpayer who is a borrower in the process
of a loan application. Common examples of “qualified disclosures” are disclosures to lenders
verifying income or creditworthiness on customers for various types of loans (auto, home
mortgage, business, etc.). Some examples of non-qualified disclosures would be disclosures for
tax administration, employment verification checks, and other non-lending purposes.
