Who (or what) is the Taxpayer Advocate? The office of Taxpayer Advocate was mandated by Internal Revenue Code Section 7803Â© in response to perceived abuses of taxpayer rights by the Internal Revenue Service. The National Taxpayer Advocate is appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury and reports directly to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. Each state and campus has at least one local Taxpayer Advocate, who is independent of the local IRS office and reports directly to the National Taxpayer Advocate. As of this writing in 2009 Nina Olson is the National Taxpayer Advocate.
