The Internal Revenue Service’s local taxpayer advocate also will participate as a guest speaker and present information about federal tax topics.
“I am excited to meet the tax community at the department’s annual workshops,” Suzuki said. “The tax workshops provide a valuable opportunity for the community to engage with the department and learn about upcoming initiatives and changes that affect their industry.”
