Photo report on the Pipeline

[https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/interactive/2022/irs-pipeline-tax-return-delays/ Opinion Why does the IRS need $80 billion? Just look at its cafeteria].

It is quite graphic.

Should it be added to the article?

Name?

Is the official name now IRS rather than Internal Revenue Service in the same way that IBM is no longer International Business Machines? I looked on their website and could find no reference to Internal Revenue Service. Cross Reference (talk) 14:49, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

:If you look at this https://www.usa.gov/agencies/internal-revenue-service, the name is here in full. Guylaen (talk) 07:42, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Miscellaneous tax unit

Hey there,

There is an historical unit of the IRS that does not have any presence on wikipedia, called the "Miscellaneous Tax Unit."

Check this document https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-soi/43dbfuller.pdf and search for the term.

I discovered this unit when I was building the page for the Miscellaneous Division (which I think I have to transform into a disambiguation page, because IRS was not the only service with a Miscellaneous Division).

Do not confuse the two - the Miscellaneous Division eventually wound up inside of the Miscellaneous Tax Unit, but they're not the same thing. Guylaen (talk) 07:47, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Chief Counsel

There are sections talking about different divisions of the IRS but no mention of the Office of Chief Counsel, except in the big list. The IRS has only two Presidentially appointed positions, the Commissioner and the Chief Counsel. Jessryn (talk) 04:28, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

Lead section has extra information

I have tagged this article's lead section as having extra information because the details of the Trump presidency appointments concerning the position of Commissioner appear to be a couple of extra paragraphs that have been tacked onto the lead, but the information has not been integrated into the body of the article, resulting in an inconsistency between the lead and the body of the article, which say different things. This also makes the lead longer than 4 paragraphs. See MOS:LEAD for purpose of the lead. It should provide an accessible overview to the whole article. Information in the lead should be in the body of the article too. See WP:LEADFOLLOWSBODY. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 05:29, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
