LB&I Domestic Survey 2016
Attachment A
Pre-Note Message
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998 established several mandates for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to fulfill. One of those mandates was to survey our customers to determine their level of satisfaction with the IRS’s overall job performance, and to solicit ideas for the improvement of our services.
The Large Business and International Division (LB&I) of the IRS is polling taxpayers to obtain feedback on overall performance with recently closed examinations. This letter is to let you know that you may be randomly selected to participate in the survey.
The primary purpose for requesting this information is to help the IRS improve its service to taxpayers. Our authority for requesting the information is 5 USC and 26 USC 7801. Providing information is voluntary. However, if you do not answer all or part of the survey questions, the IRS may lack information it could use to improve taxpayer service. The information you provide may be disclosed to an IRS contractor when authorized by law. The contractor is required to follow confidentiality protections required by the Privacy Act and /or Internal Revenue Code section 6103.
The IRS is not contacting taxpayers directly but has asked an independent research firm, Pacific Consulting Group and their subcontractor Pacific Market Research, to conduct the research. They may be contacting you via phone and asking for your participation in a 25-minute survey. Please take the time to participate in this study and use this opportunity to be candid about our performance.
To verify the authenticity of this survey, please visit IRS.gov and enter the search term “customer surveys.” The IRS Customer Satisfaction Survey page contains a list of valid, current and unexpired, IRS surveys and as of this issuance should provide a reference to LB&I Industry and Coordinated Industry Examinations.
If you have any other questions about this survey, please call the Survey Helpline at 1-866-960-7897 or contact Keith Fowler, LB&I Program Analyst, by email at [email protected]. Thank you in advance for your interest in improving our services.
Sincerely,
Kathryn Greene
Director of Technology and Program Solutions
