People can stay connected to the IRS through social media and e-news subscriptions

Taxpayers can stay in the know on all things tax-related by following the IRS verified social media accounts and subscribing to the agency's e-news services. Here are some details about these valuable information resources.

IRS social media platforms


• Twitter: Taxpayers, businesses and tax professionals can follow the IRS handles for up to the minute announcements, tips and alerts in English and Spanish.
• Facebook: News and information for everybody. Also available in Spanish.
• Instagram: The IRS Instagram account shares taxpayer-friendly information.
• YouTube: The IRS offers three video channels -- English, Multilingual and American Sign Language.
• LinkedIn: The IRS shares key agency communications and job opportunities.

The agency continues to increase multilingual outreach on social media. For example, IRS has created individual Twitter Moments in six languages, highlighting key messages in Spanish, Vietnamese, Russian, Korean, Haitian Creole and Simplified Chinese.

The IRS also has a free mobile app, IRS2Go, where taxpayers can check their refund status, pay taxes, find free tax help, watch IRS YouTube videos, and get daily tax tips. The IRS2Go app is available from the Google Play Store for Android devices, or from the Apple App Store for Apple devices. It is available in both English and Spanish.

Taxpayers should not reply to an IRS direct message on social media asking for personal or financial information. These are common scams that try to lure taxpayers on social media platforms or with unsolicited emails, texts, or calls.
