Do you know of a tax problem that affects more than one taxpayer? Submit it to us through the Systemic Advocacy Management System (SAMS)

You can help the Taxpayer Advocate Service tackle the “big-picture” problems in the IRS or the tax law by reporting them to us.  These systemic issues:

  • Always affect multiple taxpayers
  • Don’t apply to just one taxpayer (but if you personally have an unresolved IRS problem, TAS may be able to help
  • Involve IRS systems, policies, and procedures
  • Involve protecting taxpayer rights, reducing burden, ensuring fair treatment, or providing essential taxpayer services

How can I report one of these issues?

Use the button below to submit your issue on our Systemic Advocacy Management System or SAMS.  SAMS is a database of issues and information reported by IRS employees and the public.  (If you’re an IRS employee, please use the internal version of SAMS on the IRS intranet).

You’ll be asked to describe the issue briefly and provide your name and email address.  Do not include any personal taxpayer information like your Social Security number.
