BB"C4** Not shown to avoid disclosure of information about specific taxpayers. However, the data are included in the appropriate totals. CC"DI[1] This is the number of Applications for Taxpayer Assistance Order cases (Form 911) closed by the Taxpayer Advocate Service DNDMDM{EJs(TAS). TAS cases include those where: taxpayer is suffering or about to suffer a significant hardship; taxpayer ENEMEMF6is facing an immediate threat of adverse action; taxpayer will incur significant costs if relief is not granted (including fees for FNFMFMG6professional representation); taxpayer will suffer irreparable injury or long-term adverse impact if relief is not granted; taxpayer has GNGMGMH6not received a response or resolution to his or her problem or inquiry by the date promised; a system or procedure has failed to HNHMHMI6~operate as intended or failed to resolve the taxpayers problem or dispute; taxpayer has experienced a delay of more than 30 INIMIMJ6calendar days to resolve a tax account problem (a delay is a lapse of more than 30 days from the date of the taxpayers initial JNJMJMK6inquiry or from the end of the prescribed/normal processing period, whichever is greater); or relief is in the taxpayer's best interest. KNKMKMLJLJLJLJMI [2]A Taxpayer Assistance Order (TAO) directs an IRS organizational unit to take a specific action; or to review, expedite MMMMMMNJ| consideration, or reconsider a taxpayer's case. The case must meet one of the criteria described in footnote [1] above. NJNJNJFOJ> Represents TAOs associated with open and closed TAS cases. OJOJOJ'PI [3] Less than 0.5 percent. PMPMPMQI [4] Represents TAOs associated with closed TAS cases, providing full or partial relief under one of the criteria cited in footnote [1]. QJQJQJRI [5] A single issue (applicable to an individual, corporation, or other entity) that requires a change or modification to an account.

A systemic issue may include a tax law that treats taxpayers differently or unfairly when TJTJTJUJ administered. UJUJUJVI~ [7]Taxpayer Assistance Order (TAO) was issued; an operating division appealed; and the TAO was rescinded by the National VJVJVJxWJp Taxpayer Advocate, Commissioner, or Deputy Commissioner. Therefore, no relief was provided to the taxpayer. WJWJWJzXHr [8] Relief/no relief determinations are not tracked for TAS cases in the "taxpayer's best interest" category. XJXJXJYI [9] Congressional inquiries (related to constituents' tax accounts) is an information item and is not included in the totals. Of the YJYJYJZJ 11,532 Congressional inquiries, 10,129 were original and 477 were duplicate inquiries related to the same issues for the same ZJZJZJ[J constituents. [J[J[Jz\Lr[10] Includes earned income tax credit certification, recertification, reconsideration, and revenue protection. \J\J\J]L[11] Includes "substitute for return" program (IR Code Section 6020b) reconsiderations and audits. Under the nonfiler "substitute ]J]J]J^Qfor return" program, IRS uses information returns from third parties to identify tax return delinquencies, constructs tax returns _Qfor certain nonfilers on the basis of that information, and assesses tax, interest, and penalties on the results (after prepayment `P@a;@b@c;D@dF`Q credits). aL[12] Includes issues related to closed "underreporter" program cases. Under the "underreporter program," IRS uses information @bQ8returns from third parties to identify underreporters.
