IRS Quickly Moves Forward With Taxpayer Service Improvements; 4,000 Hired Plus 1000 More By End Of Year

The Internal Revenue Service announced significant progress to prepare for the 2023 tax filing season as the agency passed a milestone of hiring 4,000 new customer service representatives to help answer phones and provide other services.

These assistors have been hired over the last several months and are being trained to provide help to taxpayers, including answering phone questions. This is part of a much wider IRS improvement effort tied to the Inflation Reduction Act funding approved in August. The IRS continues working hard on implementing the landmark 10-year legislation, and updates on other improvement areas will be provided in the near future.

“The IRS is fully committed to providing the best service possible, and we are moving quickly to use new funding to help taxpayers during the busy tax season,” said IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig. “Our phone lines have been simply overwhelmed during the pandemic, and we have been unable to provide the help that IRS employees want to give and that the nation’s taxpayers deserve. But help is on the way for taxpayers. As the newly hired employees are trained and move online in 2023, we will have more assistors on the phone than any time in recent history.”

Is The IRS On A Hiring Spree?

Yes! So, if you’ve ever wanted to work as an auditor for the IRS, then it’s time to dust off your resume. The IRS is hiring thousands of auditors by the end of September 2021. And if you’re on the other side of the aisle, then take your vacation before October 2021.

At a recent tax conference, the co-commissioners of IRS’s Small Business/Self-Employed Division and the commissioner of the Criminal Investigation Division announced that they are adding roughly 2,500 new workers before the end of September. Specifically, the SB/SE Division will add about 2,000 positions, including 1,300 revenue agents. The CI Division will add 500 people, with close to half of those being special agents.

Why the sudden influx of employees?

Tax Experts Wanting Jobs: Good Times Ahead, Stay Positive

As the CEO of TaxConnections, it is important for tax professionals who may find themselves out of work to learn from my years of tax recruiting expertise. Although there will be major layoffs after tax season, I guarantee you that tax professionals will thrive this year and beyond. All of the money that is being provided through the Stimulus Bills coming of Congress will result in massive tax increases. Companies we are talking to now are asking us to help them staff their corporate tax organizations. Many corporate tax professionals working in multinationals have been working remotely all hours of the day for years so they will continue to do the same. These are the smart organizations who understandably know the future will bring increased tax rates. TaxConnections makes it easier for organizations and people to find tax experts to hire searching on our niche tax platform.

During times of uncertainty people behave differently in how they handle their lives. There are tax professional baby boomers who will now retire early because they are ready to do so. These tax professionals do not want to start all over again learning about the tax law changes due to tax reform; they know they must tool up for tax software technology; and they will simply retire earlier than companies expect. As a result, many new tax roles will open up and tax opportunities will abound for technically trained tax professionals. Other tax professionals will take a wait and see approach and will discover later they wished they moved to the front lines sooner; and then there will be tax professionals who simply do not take any action. Tax professionals who take action today to raise their online visibility will thrive with more opportunities coming to them.
