If you live in Bratislava, the IRS wants to help you pay lower taxes

As nice as this sounds, there's just something about it that I don't really trust. Why does the typically customer-unfriendly IRS want to come to Bratislava to help people with their taxes? I am curious if it is meant to be part of a larger series in a fact finding mission of sorts, a survey, or a census to see who is out there that is not filing properly with the IRS. Does anyone else have any suggestions? Of course, maybe I am just wrong, maybe the IRS just wants to be nice and to help taxpayers living in Bratislava to be able to have the largest possible tax breaks imaginable.

Skeptical in Highwood,
Allan
