ACTION: Notice; correction.
AGENCY:
In the Federal Register notice
that was originally published on April
6, 2021, (Volume 86, Number 64, Page
17883) the state of Montana was listed

SUMMARY:
Lisa
Billups at 214–413–6523 (not a toll-free
call)
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that the Department of the
Treasury and the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) are inviting individuals to
help improve the nation’s tax agency by
applying to be members of the Taxpayer
Advocacy Panel (TAP). The mission of
the TAP is to listen to taxpayers,
identify issues that affect taxpayers, and
make suggestions for improving IRS
service and customer satisfaction. The
TAP serves as an advisory body to the
Secretary of the Treasury, the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and
the National Taxpayer Advocate. TAP
members will participate in
subcommittees that channel their
feedback to the IRS through the Panel’s
parent committee.
The IRS is seeking applicants who
have an interest in good government, a
personal commitment to volunteer
approximately 200 to 300 hours a year,
and a desire to help improve IRS
customer service. As a federal advisory
committee, TAP is required to have a
fairly balanced membership in terms of
the points of view represented. Thus,
TAP membership represents a crosssection of the taxpaying public with at

least one member from each state, the
District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, in
addition to one member representing
international taxpayers. For application
purposes, ‘‘international taxpayers’’ are
defined broadly to include U.S. citizens
working, living, or doing business
abroad or in a U.S. territory. Potential
candidates must be U.S. citizens, not a
current employee of any Bureau of the
Treasury Department or have worked for
any Bureau of the Treasury Department
within the three years of December 1 of
the current year and must pass a federal
tax compliance check and a Federal
Bureau of Investigation criminal
background investigation. Applicants
who practice before the IRS must be in
good standing with the IRS (meaning
not currently under suspension or
disbarment). Federally registered
lobbyists cannot be members of the
TAP. The IRS is seeking members or
alternates in the following locations:
Alabama, Arkansas, California,
Connecticut, District of Columbia,
Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii,
Idaho, Kentucky, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Missouri, Minnesota,
Montana, North Dakota, Nebraska, New
Hampshire, New Mexico, New York,
Nevada, Oklahoma, Ohio, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee,
Texas, Vermont, Wisconsin, West
Virginia, Wyoming, and International.
TAP members are a diverse group of
citizens who represent the interests of
taxpayers, from their respective
geographic locations as well as
taxpayers overall. Members provide
feedback from a taxpayer’s perspective
on ways to improve IRS customer
service and administration of the federal
tax system, by identifying grassroots
taxpayer issues. Members should have
good communication skills and be able
to speak to taxpayers about TAP and its
activities, while clearly distinguishing
between TAP positions and their
personal viewpoints.
Interested applicants should visit the
TAP website at www.improveirs.org for
more information about TAP.
Applications may be submitted online
at www.usajobs.gov. For questions about
TAP membership, call the TAP toll-free
number, 1–888–912–1227 and select
prompt 5. Callers who are outside of the
U.S. should call 214–413–6523 (not a
toll-free call).
The opening date for submitting
applications is April 5, 2021 and the
deadline for submitting applications is
May 14, 2021. Interviews will be held.
The Department of the Treasury will
review the recommended candidates
and make final selections. New TAP
members will serve a three-year term
starting in December 2021. (Note: highly
