Taxpayer Advocacy Panel program to go on temporary administrative suspension

For more than 20 years, the Taxpayer Advocacy Panel (TAP), through its team of dedicated volunteer members, has served a vital function in our tax system by advocating for the interests of taxpayers and offering critical feedback to the IRS. The insights and concerns raised by TAP members have historically played an influential role in shaping policies and redefining services that directly affect taxpayers across the nation and abroad. At this time, however, the TAP program will enter a temporary administrative suspension, effective February 13, 2026.

This will include a suspension on the acceptance of new issues and concerns related to improving IRS processes and taxpayer service. Please return to this page for additional updates as they become available.

Digital Assets Public Hearing Rescheduled for November 13

The IRS is having a hearing on proposed regulations regarding digital asset transactions November 13, 2023.

Given the large amount of interest in the issue, the IRS wanted to give as much advance public notice of the change in advance of the Federal Register notice. In addition, the hearing will be conducted telephonically, rather than at the IRS headquarters building in Washington. The Federal Register will have additional details on how the public can listen to the hearing. Your voice matters. Join the call and get the latest details on digital assets.
