Your Rights as a Taxpayer-The Taxpayer Bill of Rights

 

As stated by the Internal Revenue Service, their mission is to

Provide America’s taxpayers top-quality service by helping them understand and meet their tax responsibilities and enforce the law with integrity and fairness to all

It was toward this end that the Tax Payer Bill of Rights were created by the IRS and incorporated into IRS Publication 1. The Taxpayer Bill of Rights contains 10 provisions compiled by the Internal Revenue Service that “Take the multiple existing rights embedded in the tax code and groups them into 10 broad categories making them more visible and easier for taxpayers to find.”
