Revenue Officer

Employed by the Collection Division, Revenue Officers conduct tax delinquency field investigations, which require them to visit taxpayers at their residence or place of business. Revenue Officers have the authority to assess the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty; prepare and file delinquent employment tax returns; conduct asset seizures and sales; obtain writs of entry (civil law equivalent of a search warrant); refer cases for investigation by the Criminal Investigation Division and Examination Division; and initiate civil suits in Federal Court.
