Taxpayer Advocacy Panel annual report

August 18, 2007

My colleagues on the Taxpayer Advocacy Panel have released our 2006 annual report. We got it out a bit later than we wanted, but if you thumb through it, you’ll see why.

As required by the federal law that created TAP, each year we provide a written report describing the Panel’s objectives and a self-assessment of our previous report goals. The 2006 version summarizes 58 new recommendations that TAP generated
for IRS consideration last year.

The report also updates the status of the 250 recommendations TAP has submitted to the IRS since the panel was established in 2002. Many of those changes have been partially or fully
implemented.

As you read the report, and I’m sure you all will, if you think of other areas that need improvement please do, as the TAP motto urges, Speak Up!

You can find out more about TAP, including how to contact our offices, here. And you can read previous annual reports here.

Hello Tax Season 2026

Happy New Tax Year! Are you ready to file your 2025 tax return? I know, too early to ask. But Tax Day 2026 will be here before we realize it. The Internal Revenue Service deadline to file and pay any tax we owe is the regular April 15 date this year. It’s also Tax Day for most of the states that collect income taxes from their residents, which is most of the states! If that seems too far away right now, don’t worry. As is the case every tax season, the ol’ blog’s tips and other tax reminders should help all of us meet our state and federal responsibilities. Procrastinators also will want to keep an eye on the countdown clock just below. It tracks how much time we have until April’s Tax Day, just in case we put off our annual tax task until the absolutely final hours and decide we need to instead get an extension request into the IRS by that date. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)
