Internal Revenue Service (IRS) employees who accepted the Trump administration's buyout and opted for deferred resignation have been asked by their employers to continue working for a few months due to the "essential" nature of their jobs.

Summary

IRS employees who accepted the Trump administration’s buyout offer have been told they must continue working until May 15 because their roles are deemed “essential.”

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) had offered voluntary resignations and warned of future downsizing for those who stayed.

Uncertainty now surrounds the offer’s implementation, sparking frustration among employees.

The National Treasury Employees Union criticized the move, arguing it proves IRS workers are vital, especially during tax season, and that federal job cuts risk harming public services.
