The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) announced a new leadership structure for the first time in more than twenty years, reducing a key position and introducing four new positions.
Currently, the IRS is overseen by two deputy commissioners. The new organizational structure features a “single deputy IRS commissioner” and adds four new chief positions overseeing taxpayer service, tax compliance, information technology, and operations, said a Dec. 13 press release. This will be the first update to the IRS' organization chart in over two decades as the current leadership structure dates back to 2000. The updates are anticipated to take place in early 2024.
