IRS Announces Cancellation of Files Contract And Return of Work to Agency Employees

NTEU applauded the Internal Revenue Service’s (IRS) decision to return into the hands of agency employees the work of managing and storing taxpayer files.

A Bad Idea
From the Start...
Read a timeline of the ill-fated IRS deal with IAP.

“This marks the first time since this administration launched its aggressive contracting out program that I have seen a major contract ‘in-sourced,’” said NTEU President Colleen M. Kelley, who has called for this move since the IRS contracted out the work two years ago. “Turning over the sensitive work of filing and maintaining tax returns and their related documents and correspondence was a bad idea from the start.”

The IRS said it is not renewing its multi-million dollar contract with IAP Worldwide, Inc., and that effective Oct 1 it would resume direct management over taxpayer files at seven regional tax return submission processing centers—Andover, Mass., Atlanta, Austin, Covington, Ky.; Fresno, Calif.; Kansas City, and Ogden, Utah. The agency is in discussions with NTEU over hiring employees for the positions. Some 700 jobs are expected to be filled at these locations. More

On Sept. 17, the Senate approved the National Defense Authorization Bill with a 3.9 percent pay raise in 2009 for members of the military—a step that should result in the same raise for civilian federal employees.
