Hey there, fellow taxpayers! The IRS has a little secret for you – they’re fluent in more than just “tax-speak.” That’s right, the taxman has gone multilingual to make sure everyone, regardless of their language or background, can access the tax help they need. So, whether you speak Spanish or Haitian Creole, the IRS has your back. Let’s dive in and see how they’re making tax season easier for all of us.

Welcome to the United Nations of Tax Help The IRS has transformed its website (IRS.gov) into a multilingual hub, offering tax information in seven different languages. All you need to do is choose your preferred language from the dropdown menu at the top of the page. Currently, the options include:

• Spanish
• Chinese Traditional
• Chinese Simplified
• Korean
• Russian
• Haitian Creole

But wait, there’s more! The IRS’s Languages page expands their linguistic prowess even further, offering tax guidance and information on essential topics like the Taxpayer Bill of Rights, filing information for individuals and businesses, payment options, refunds, and how to get tax help. And they’re doing this in even more languages!

Lost in Translation? The IRS Has You Covered If you’re unable to find answers to your burning tax questions on IRS.gov, don’t worry – the IRS has a team of professional interpreters ready to help in over 350 languages! For assistance in Spanish, just call 800-829-1040. For all other languages, dial 833-553-9895. The IRS assistors will either provide an interpreter over the phone or schedule you an appointment at a local Taxpayer Assistance Center for some face-to-face help.

More Multilingual Tax Resources The IRS has gone the extra mile to make tax information accessible to everyone. Here’s a quick rundown of additional resources:

• IRS Publication 17, Your Federal Income Tax, is available in seven languages.
