The Internal Revenue Service and Department of Justice issued the subpoenas in the last year and authorities have identified investors and gathered information from lenders to Kushner Companies projects in New York and New Jersey, a person familiar with the matter told Bloomberg in a report published Thursday. The projects involve deals as far back as 2010.
It is not clear whether tax authorities are also investigating Kushner Companies or its business associates. A Justice Department and IRS spokesman declined to comment.
Kushner Companies spokeswoman Chris Taylor told Newsweek in an email Thursday, "We (have) never been contacted about our taxes or an audit and to our knowledge, neither have any of our investors.”
“In a rush to publish unsubstantiated information from unnamed sources Bloomberg has admitted in its own story that they are not clear on the facts. There’s a good reason that they are not clear on the facts—they got it wrong," Taylor said. "If there is an audit of a third party, it has nothing to do with us. Bloomberg’s 'so-called reporting' is irresponsible and actionable."
