Employee Plans Compliance Unit (EPCU)

The EPCU works compliance checks and performs data analysis to focus on areas of potential non-compliance.

• Taxpayers are initially contacted by correspondence, but EPCU may follow up with additional letters and/or telephone calls.
• Most issues are resolved without an on-site examination of the books and records of the plan, saving time and money for both the taxpayer and the IRS.
• To date, the EPCU has completed 87 projects/strategies and conducted over 53,000 compliance checks.
