The National Taxpayer Advocate annual report to congress

National Public Accountant, The, April, 2002 by William Stevenson

Congress mandates that The National Taxpayer Advocate Office of the IRS provide a full and subtantative analysis of its activities for the year, including a summary of significant taxpayer problems and recommendations to solve those problems. This table--The Most Serious Problems Encountered by Taxpayers--keeps the order of the rankings given by National Taxpayer Advocate Nina Olson.

We have taken the liberty of adding the NSA point of view on the issues. A second table, Legislative Recommendations, will appear in the June NPA.
