The IRS plans to ask workers who accepted offers of deferred resignation and early retirement to come back to work — an attempt tomake up for staffing losses after the agency found it had vacancies in critical jobs.
The tax agency — which lost nearly 25,700 employees, or 25 percent of the workforce, from buyouts, resignations and firings — told employees that it now wants to reverse some of those losses by reassigning workers, asking workers who took buyouts to return and launching a hiring campaign. Those who took the buyout are among more than 154,000 employees throughout government who remain on the payroll, part of a sweeping effort to cull the federal workforce through voluntary departures. The Trump administration initially planned for widespread layoffs, spearheaded by Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service, but litigation stalled those efforts.
The staffing losses at the IRS could create risks for next year’s filing season, even though the IRS had a strong year in revenue this year, the agency’s independent watchdog warned in June.
It is a particularly eventful time at the IRS. Former Missouri congressman Billy Long left the agency recently after just two months, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was named as acting commissioner, becoming the seventh person to lead the IRS since the start of the year.

More than 4,500 IRS employees were approved for the first buyout, according to the agency’s watchdog. In April, the Treasury Department offered a second buyout, and more than 17,800 workers left Treasury, which includes the IRS…

The IRS is not the only agency to change its mind about fired workers. The Agriculture Department sought to rehire bird flu response workers after avian influenza sent egg prices soaring in February. Workers who maintain America’s nuclear weapons at the National Nuclear Security Administration were also brought back after an outcry.
Republicans have previously opposed expanding the IRS workforce after former president Joe Biden ushered a hiring spree at the agency….
Note….
Biden HAD staffed up the IRS which had begun to increase collents from rich and corporate tax payers….
Musk’s DOGE people have made sure to get rid of that effort….
Now we have efforts to repair the DOGE damage…
