Each IRPAC member is nominated by 

the Commissioner with the concurrence 

of the Secretary of Treasury to serve a 

three-year term. Working groups address 

policies and administration issues 

specific to information reporting. 

Members are not paid for their services. 

However, travel expenses for working 

sessions, public meetings and 

orientation sessions, such as airfare, per 

diem, and transportation are reimbursed 

within prescribed federal travel 

limitations. 

Receipt of applications will be 

acknowledged, and all individuals will 

be notified when selections have been 

made. 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. Federally registered 

lobbyists cannot be members of the 

IRPAC. 

Equal opportunity practices will be 

followed for all appointments to the 

IRPAC in accordance with the 

Department of Treasury and IRS 

policies. The IRS has special interest in 

assuring that women and men, members 

of all races and national origins, and 

individuals with disabilities are 

adequately represented on advisory 

committees. Therefore, it extends 

particular encouragement to 

nominations from such appropriately 

qualified candidates.
