The Internal Revenue Service and the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center plan to co-sponsor their thirteenth annual tax administration research conference next year. It will be held on June 22, 2023 at the Urban Institute in Washington, DC. We invite you to propose a research paper on a tax administration topic for the 2023 conference. General areas of interest include measuring and influencing taxpayer compliance, estimating taxpayer compliance costs (burden), tax complexity, improving tax administration (e.g., through service, enforcement, systems, third parties, changing the tax law or regulations, etc.), and understanding the nature and behavior of the taxpayer population.

The Statistics of Income (SOI) working papers present new and exciting research on the U.S. Federal tax system and the methods used to produce tax statistics. Papers are presented at professional conferences, such as the Joint Statistical Meeting of the American Statistical Association and the National Tax Association's annual conference on taxation, and are often published in professional journals. Below you will find a selection of papers organized by presentation year.
