I think the IRS must already have a pretty good relationship with CBP. A few years ago, the IRS sent me a letter claiming I owed them a large quantity of money. It was a mistake, because my idiot broker messed up the paperwork. (Schwab equity awards. What a disaster.) At about the same time, I applied to renew Global Entry. Nothing happened on the Global Entry application for months, as I worked with a tax expert to correct my tax return. Several months later, I got mail from the IRS saying the case was resolved (they owed me $70, it turned out), and the same day my new Global Entry card arrived.
Maybe it's a coincidence but it seems like the two agencies work together. They also apparently withhold government services if they think you owe them money. Not sure if I think that's amazing, or petty. Leaning towards amazing though.
