Taxpayer Advocate Service, National Service Level Agreements (SLAs)

  1. The National Taxpayer Advocate has reached agreements with the Commissioners of the Taxpayer Services (TS) , Small Business/Self-Employed (SB/SE) Division, Tax Exempt and Government Entities (TE/GE) Division, and Large Business and International (LB&I), that outline the procedures and responsibilities for the processing of Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) casework when either the statutory or delegated authority to complete case transactions rests outside of TAS.

  2. The SLAs are located at Service Level Agreement Between The National Taxpayer Advocate and the Commissioner, SB/SE Division"under the heading "TAS Favorites" and select SLA-Service Level Agreements."

  3. The Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) is an independent organization within the IRS whose employees assist taxpayers who are experiencing economic harm, who are seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been resolved through normal channels, or who believe that an IRS system or procedure is not working, as it should. TAS criteria include economic burden, systemic burden, best interest of the taxpayer, and public policy (as determined solely by the National Taxpayer Advocate (NTA). TAS is responsible for assisting taxpayers who have unresolved problems with the IRS. Additional information on hardship criteria can be found in IRM 13.1.7, Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) Case Criteria.

  4. If the IRS employee receives taxpayer contact that meets TAS criteria, and the employee cannot initiate action to resolve the taxpayer's inquiry or provide the relief requested by the taxpayer, refer the case to TAS. A taxpayer should not have to request TAS assistance to be referred to TAS. IRS employees will advise taxpayers of the option to seek TAS assistance when appropriate. TAS will request documentation from the taxpayer to support the requested relief, or when required by the IRM.

  5. A referral to a TAS office is not necessary even if a TAS case criterion is met if an Operating Division or Function can immediately resolve the issue within 24 hours. It is important that all IRS employees handle potential TAS cases with the taxpayer's best interest in mind. More information on "24-hour" same day resolution can be found in IRM 13.1.7.5, Same Day Resolution by Operations.

  6. If action can be taken within 24 hours to resolve the taxpayer's issue however, the taxpayer requests TAS assistance or is not satisfied with the service provided, refer the taxpayer to the NTA toll-free number, 1-877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD 1-800-829-4059. Refer to IRM 21.1.3.18, Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) Guidelines, for more information.

Chapter 2 - Research

  1. When performing a query (research) for records, it is critical to enter as much information as possible in order to narrow your research request. A query initiated with minimal information could have debilitating affects to the system. Ranges may be used to help limit research. A wildcard may be used when partial information for a field is known.

  2. This section covers the following topics:

    1. Research Screen

    2. Results Screen

    3. Detail Screen

    4. Notes

    5. Multiple/Splits

    6. Images

3.5.10.8.1 (01-01-2022)

Research Screen

  1. The Research Screen will prompt the user for information necessary to research the payment database. Payments may be researched using the following information:

    1. DLN

    2. Trace Identification

    3. Deposit Date

    4. Transaction Date

    5. Transaction Code

    6. Money Amount

    7. Tax Period

    8. MFT

    9. Name Control

    10. TIN

    11. Batch Number

    12. Routing Number

    13. Site Code

  2. Range function- Dates, money amounts and transaction codes may be researched using the range function. This can be useful in researching payments when the exact date or amount is not known. Ranges should be as narrow as possible while still allowing an adequate search.

    Example:

    The taxpayer states that they made a payment of $102 and "some odd cents" . The payment may be researched by entering an amount range from $102.00 to $103.00.

    Note:

    Do not enter an excessive range request such as $100.00 to $150.00. This would result in an increase in the system response time and the number of result records.

    1. Date ranges are limited based on user group level. Group levels, 05 and 10 are limited to a two-month range. User Group Level 00 is limited to a six-month range.

    2. If requesting an exact search, enter one date, money amount or transaction code.

  3. Wildcard entries- A wildcard entry is when partial information is used in a field for researching payments. There are four fields which allow a wildcard-TIN, DLN, Routing Number and Name Control (NC). The wildcard may be used to designate either a single or group of characters and may be used anywhere within the field. Except when used in the DLN, the wildcard (*), must be the last entry in the field. It cannot be a leading character or embedded within other characters..

    Note:

    When searching for actual name control, you should enter as many of the characters as possible, followed by (*).

Viewing/Editing Remittance Processing System Identification (RPSID) Ranges (Level 30 Users)

  1. The Integrated Submission and Remittance Processing (ISRP) system converts paper tax and information documents, and remittances received by IRS into perfected electronic records of taxpayer data. When a tax document is received, it is opened and sorted by form type; for example, Form 1040 and Form 1040-A. Remittances with their accompanying documentation are presorted into groups called batches and a unique number, Remittance Processing System Identification (RPSID) will appear on the back of the archived remittance image of the payment (check, money order, etc.). For more extensive information concerning the RPSID, refer to IRM 3.5.61.3.75, Form CT-2, Employee Representative’s Quarterly Railroad Tax Return (OSPC only).

  2. RPSID ranges are used to collect, sort and report data on both the Daily and Monthly Deposit Timeliness reports as well as the Deposit Activity report. Therefore, changes to the RPSID ranges will affect these reports.

    1. Generating the Daily Deposit Timeliness Report

    2. Generating the Deposit Activity Report

    3. Generating the Performance Metrics Report

    4. Generating the Reconciliation Report

    5. Generating the RPSID Range Summary Report

3.5.10.10.1 (01-01-2022)

Generating the Daily Deposit Timeliness Report

  1. The Daily Deposit Timeliness Report provides information on daily deposits made at any of the sites. It is based upon:

    1. Dates

    2. RPSID Ranges

    3. Site Names

  2. This report is used in the measurement of deposit timeliness as required by the Balanced Measures criteria. The report calculates the Lost Opportunity Cost of deposits not made within the required 24-hour period. The formula for this calculation is based on 365 days at an interest rate of 8%.

    Note:

    Only User Levels 30 and 40 or administrators can access this report.

    1. The formulas in the table below will be used to calculate lost opportunity cost for (1) non-RS-PCC processed payments, and (2) RS-PCC processed payments.
    (1) Non-RS-PCC Payments(2) RS-PCC Payments
    The RTR Software shall calculate the opportunity cost for non-RS-PCC payments using the following formula if the Deposit Date is not equal to the next business day following the Transaction Date: (Deposit Date - the next business day after the Transaction Date) \* (Transaction Amount \* (interest rate / 365).The RTR Software shall calculate the opportunity cost for RS-PCC payments using the following formula if the Deposit Date is not equal to the next business day following the Transaction Date: (Deposit Date - the second business day after the Transaction Date) \* (Transaction Amount)\* (interest rate / 365).
    The RTR Software shall calculate the opportunity cost for non-RS-PCC payments as zero if the Deposit Date is the next business day following the transaction date, or the same day as the transaction date, or less than the Transaction Date.The RTR Software shall calculate the opportunity cost for RS-PCC payments as zero if the Deposit Date is the next business day after the Transaction Date, the same day as the Transaction Date, or earlier than the Transaction Date.
