such as prevention of identity theftrelated refund fraud—in support of the 

overriding goal that paperless filing 

should be the preferred and most 

convenient method of filing tax and 

information returns. ETAAC members 

work closely with the Security Summit,

administrators and the nation’s tax 

industry, to fight identity theft and 

refund fraud. ETAAC members convey 

the public’s perceptions of IRS 

electronic tax administration activities, 

offer constructive observations about 

current or proposed policies, programs 

and procedures, and suggest 

improvements. 

This is a volunteer position. Members 

will serve three-year terms on the 

ETAAC to allow for a rotation in 

membership and ensure different 

perspectives are represented. Travel 

expenses within government guidelines 

will be reimbursed. In accordance with 

Department of Treasury Directive 21–03, 

a clearance process including 

fingerprints, annual tax checks, a 

Federal Bureau of Investigation criminal 

check and a practitioner check with the 

Office of Professional Responsibility 

will be conducted.

the Electronic Tax Administration 

Advisory Committee (ETAAC) is 

required by the Internal Revenue 

Service (IRS) Restructuring and Reform 

Act of 1998 (RRA 98), Title II, Section

will provide input into the development 

of the strategic plan for electronic tax 

administration. Members will provide
