The Systemic Advocacy Program
Systemic Advocacy is dedicated to preventing, reducing or eliminating the problems taxpayers encounter in the course of meeting their federal tax
obligations. Any individual, business, or organization that is interested in identifying a problem or sharing an idea that might advance this effort may use
this form. Other programs may be more appropriate for certain issues. Administrative, personnel, and other internal policies are generally excluded.
Systemic issues impact a group (i.e.Taxpayers) locally, regionally, or nationally; involving systems, processes, policies or procedures; and require study,
analysis, recommendation(s), legislation or other actions resulting in positive change.

You are not required to provide the information requested on a form that is subject to the Paperwork Reduction unless the form displays a valid OMB
control number.
