The Taxpayer Advocate Service Website is Now Available in Thirteen Languages
July 26, 2024 – The Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) is happy to announce that our website is now available in 13 different languages. This expansion began back in 2022 with Spanish and now includes 11 of the other languages that are most widely used in the United States.
“I am so excited that we can provide 11 new language options on the TAS website that provides access to valuable tax help for millions of taxpayers where English is their second language,” said National Taxpayer Advocate Erin M. Collins. “These taxpayers will have access to valuable tax help, learn about their taxpayer rights, read about tax news, navigate IRS letters and notices, and learn about important resources like Low Income Taxpayer Clinics. It is important for us to continue to find new ways to connect with taxpayers in ways that make it easier for them to understand and engage with the tax system and resolve their tax-related issues. I applaud our team at TAS for their hard work in providing more access to taxpayers who speak other languages.”

The Taxpayer Advocate Service’s mission is to ensure every taxpayer is treated fairly and understands their rights. We are always looking for new and better ways to advocate for our taxpayers and that commitment includes trying to meet our taxpayers where they are through one of our local taxpayer offices, in person at Problem Solving events, over the phone, and online. That also includes trying to better serve our taxpayers who speak other languages.
We are proud of this expansion and will continue to explore future enhancements to better serve all taxpayers.
