“Included in this bill (H.R. 22) is a provision that will require the IRS to outsource the collection of certain tax debts to private collection agencies. Any funds collected by these private collection agencies will not be paid into the coffers of the federal government (at least not immediately). Instead, they go into a special fund. Out of this fund, the private debt collection agencies are able to be paid up to 25% of what they collect, based on their contracts with the IRS. Another 25% is to be used by the IRS to hire new Revenue Officers for local collection efforts and to hire new collections personnel for the automated collection system (ACS).”
