The American Institute of CPA’s (AICPA) recommends that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) implement a contingency plan that excepts all IRS employees during the ongoing government shutdown, especially considering the current 2025 filing season. Without appropriate staffing levels, we are concerned that taxpayers will encounter the same challenges experienced during the 2018-2019 shutdown and that such problems will result in a substantial delay to the 2026 filing season.
