Authorization
I authorize the IRS to disclose a Tax Compliance Report containing confidential tax return information to the designated federal appointee above. The
Tax Compliance Report will disclose whether or not I am compliant with my United States federal tax obligations and provide applicable supporting
details from the tax account associated with my SSN limited to:
1. Individual income tax filing obligations
(Tax Form Number 1040), whether the return was filed timely or late (with regard to valid extensions), for the four
(4) most recent tax periods; and when there is no return on file and filing was required, for up to the six (6) most recent tax periods.
2. Business taxes for which I am personally liable. As a sole-proprietor I may be liable for filing employment and/or excise tax returns for my
business (See instructions). If applicable, the report will identify the type of unfiled business tax return(s) and tax period(s), if a return is required
based on my business’ reporting requirements.
3. Unpaid assessed tax liabilities (i.e. tax debts) for any tax period for which the collection statute of limitations has not expired. (This is generally (10)
years from the date of assessment unless extended).
If all taxes are paid the report will state that no taxes are due. For unpaid taxes as of the date of
the report, the tax period; the amount owed (total balance due including tax, penalties and interest); primary reason for the assessment; the existence of
a tax lien, if applicable, and the current status of the account (e.g. installment agreement, appeal or claim pending, etc.) will be listed.
4. Whether federal taxes were paid late for the four (4) most recent tax years. If applicable, the report will identify the type of tax and tax period(s)
with payments made after the due date of the return.
5. Whether a fraudulent failure to file or civil tax fraud penalty was assessed in the last five (5) years. If applicable, the report will identify the tax
period, date, and amount of the penalty(ies) assessed, even if fully paid by the date of the report.
The IRS will not release copies of my tax return, a transcript of my account nor information concerning my income, dependents or filing status, to the
appointee pursuant to this authorization.
I certify that I have the authority to execute this consent. Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have authority to execute this consent and the
information provided is to the best of my knowledge and belief, true, correct, and complete.
Signature of Taxpayer (The signature and date must be handwritten and the consent must be received by the IRS within 120-days of the date it was signed.)

Instructions for Form 14767, Consent to Disclose Tax Compliance Check
Purpose of Form
The purpose of the tax compliance report is to provide the appointee
federal tax information necessary for use in conducting a background
investigation or determining one or more of the following:
• Suitability for government employment or appointment,
• Eligibility for access to federally controlled facilities and information
systems,
• Authorization to be issued a federal credential or receive sensitive
government information,
• Access to classified information,
• Contractor or federal employee fitness,
• Monitoring tax compliance, if required as a condition of employment, or
• Other purposes authorized by Federal law
The purpose of this form is to authorize the Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) to prepare a tax compliance report that discloses confidential tax
information to a third-party appointee. The appointee is the federal
agency identified on the form which may be your current or prospective
employing or contracting agency or a federal investigative service
provider agency for example, the Defense Counterintelligence and
Security Agency (DCSA) which conducts background investigations for
Federal agencies. This form may also be used to request a tax
compliance report for other authorized uses. Without a valid consent, the
IRS is prohibited by law from disclosing any of this information to third
parties. Pursuant to this consent, only your tax compliance report and
limited details from your tax account will be disclosed.
Authorized Disclosures
If you timely filed and paid your taxes, the report will state that you are
compliant with your tax obligations. The report will only address facts of
filing and your compliance status on all authorized tax periods. If you
have a delinquent Federal tax liability (i.e. unpaid tax debt), we will only
disclose limited information sufficient to explain the specific delinquency.
If there are overdue filings or payments the report will state that you are
non-compliant or identify the compliance issue if there are extenuating
circumstances (e.g. litigation, combat zone, installment agreement) and provide
an explanation along with the current status of your account. For
example, if you owe taxes for 2018 and are repaying through an
approved installment agreement, we will report the amount owed and the
fact that you have a current installment agreement.
We will report an assessment of a civil tax fraud penalty or fraudulent
failure to file penalties whether paid or unpaid. These penalties relate to
the non-filing or non-payment of income, excise and employment tax
returns (for example the trust fund recovery penalty; frivolous filing penalty; willful
failure to pay, evade or defeat the stamp tax; sanctions awarded by the Tax Court).
Generally, these penalties are assessed in addition to any income tax
liability under your Social Security Number (SSN).
Your authorized appointee will use your tax records for purposes allowed
by federal law which may include redisclosure to others during the
maintenance and processing of your suitability or eligibility determination.
Contact your appointee to obtain additional information about routine
uses of your tax compliance report.
Business Information
Do you own a business? If you own a business as a sole proprietor, we
will research and report any delinquent excise or employment tax
liabilities associated with your business. You would report the income
and expenses of your business on Schedules C or F attached to your
individual income tax return. This only applies if you have employees or
are subject to excise taxes for which you are personally responsible for
paying even though these taxes are assessed using the business’s
Employer Identification Number (EIN). The employment or excise tax
returns are not reported on your individual income tax return but are filed
separately with the IRS (for example, Form 940, 941,720). If you do not have
employees or are not required to pay these taxes, you would not file any
of these business returns.
Taxpayer Information
Enter your name, Social Security Number (SSN) and address in the
spaces provided. If you used the IRS online tax check service, enter the
Online Code you received when you were unable to verify your identity.
Leave the Online Code blank if you did not use the IRS online tax check
service.
Authorized Appointee
The Federal agency that will receive your confidential tax information
should have provided the information for this section. They will identify
the name of the agency, assigned agency code, the agency’s mailing
address and contact telephone number. If they did not provide this

if this information is blank.
Signature of Taxpayer
You must sign and date the consent in order for the IRS to disclose your
tax information to the Federal agency appointee named on the consent.
The signature and date must be handwritten. When signing the

Privacy Act Notice
We ask for the information on this form to carry out the Internal Revenue laws of the United States. This form authorizes the IRS to disclose your confidential tax information to

information your appointee can receive. Internal Revenue Code section 6103(c) and its regulations require you to provide this information if you want to designate an
appointee to inspect and/or receive your confidential tax information. Under section 6109, you must disclose your identification number. If you do not provide all the
information requested on this form, we may not be able to honor the authorization. Providing false or fraudulent information may subject you to penalties.

other countries under a tax treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce federal nontax criminal laws, or to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat
terrorism. We may disclose this information to persons for purposes of collecting debts through salary and administrative offsets and to the news media as described in IRS
Policy Statement 11-94. We may also disclose this information to appropriate persons to assist in responding to compromises of information.
