Recommendations to the IRS may be adopted, partially adopted, considered, or not adopted. TAP recommendations may be rejected based on policy, staffing, or budget concerns. A recommendation that is not adopted may be resubmitted for reconsideration if there is additional information that might impact the IRS decision.
Regardless of whether a recommendation is adopted, the very fact the TAP exists to make those recommendations to the IRS provides levelof accountability in the mind of the public and is important to the integrity of the process.
