The layoffs affect probationary employees with roughly one year or less of service at the agency and largely include workers in compliance departments, according to the person, who was not authorized to disclose the plans and spoke on condition of anonymity Wednesday. Compliance work includes ensuring that taxpayers are abiding by the tax code, filing their returns and paying their taxes, among other duties.
With AI, they could EASILY do auditing, especially if tax returns are required to be submitted as digital files, with a very minimal staff. I believe the percentage of people who submit hand-written tax returns is VERY small now (they could keep a few dozen people on staff to review those :) )
Who else is at least a little surprised that Trump or the admin hasn't mentioned ANYTHING about still paying your income taxes this April 15th?
They have to know this is on everyone's minds as we prepare the tax forms. In the face of all the proven fraud, I really really really don't want to fork it over. But for a tax revolt to work, it has to be nearly unanimous.
Don’t forget to grab their guns.
Seriously, I’m so tired of overpriced ammo
And the millions of rounds of ammo?
Offer them a deal about working as border surveyor.
…from the Southern side of the wall.
Howls. You are worse than me.
Thank you, Fren.🤓
...and sell their guns and ammo to the American public, at discount prices.
6,000 is a drop in the bucket
87,000 minimum
I’d say the 87,000 then 6,000 more just as an f u
Better yet, just fire every last one and close down the IRS for good.
Yes! And do it NOW, before everyone dutifully sends in their income tax forms and payments.
6,000 down, 81,000+ to go!
To clean a castle piled with shit all these decades, you have to remove one small pile at a time. LOL
I still want to know how many federal employees got fired because they didn’t return to the office when they were required to? Why no details on this?
Everyone my husband works with returned to office.
Someone tells me please.
It didn’t happen !
Moar sauce:

Oh. Did you hear the crocodile tears. We never had an evaluation and now we are fired for not doing our work.
How many employees does the IRS actually have?
Trillions!
More than they need. 😉
One is more than they need or should have.
External Revenue service pronto.

They have made it near impossible to submit paper returns.
I have no clue. A lot.
AND I THOUGHT Trump was sending them to the mexican border, or at least the 87,000 with guns!
I would love to see that. They can work, but on the border.
Isn't this one getting shut down as well.?
Unnamed sources say son
I think they all going.
This might be the year to skip paying taxes. They won't have the staff to audit or penalize lol
I'm still waiting for the signal from Trump
Blockchain would remedy the IRS assuming the internet doesn’t go down, but that’s no different than now
I like the idea.
How about the new 87,000 first? 🤨
One step at a time. You cannot clean a castle filled floor to ceiling with craps without slowly removing one item at a time. Howls.
Good. The bastards
LOL
Publicans
Not sure.

I am waiting for the announcement.
We won't need any of them soon.
I am all done with them.
File an extension until we see it play out!
I think I will.
Give all their ammo to the border patrol!
I 2nd that.
Womp Womp.
They learn to code.
