Episode description as stored
The IRS has fewer employees. Artificial intelligence is taking on a bigger role. Enforcement is becoming more targeted. And the way cases are selected, worked—and appealed—may be about to change dramatically. So what does that mean for taxpayers and the professionals who represent them? Tax Rep Network Founder Eric Green sits down with former IRS SB/SE Commissioner Darren Guillot . Now on the other side of the table, Guillot offers a rare insider’s perspective on where the IRS is headed. They dig into the impact of the dramatic reduction in the IRS workforce, why enforcement revenue matters far beyond the dollars actually collected, and how the agency may use AI and massive amounts of taxpayer data to identify the cases most worth pursuing. Guillot also explains why AI could fundamentally change IRS audits—allowing the agency to spot risk earlier, select better cases, automate routine collection work, and concentrate experienced revenue officers and agents on higher-dollar and more complex taxpayers. Is the Independent Office of Appeals really independent? Why are some cases sitting in Appeals for years only to result in a “take 15–20% or go to court” settlement? And has Appeals drifted away from what Guillot himself helped design through the Appeals Judicial Approach and Culture (AJAC) initiative? If you represent taxpayers before the IRS, this is a conversation you’ll want to hear. The IRS of the next five years may look very different from the IRS you know today. Want to contact Darren?
