Internal Revenue Service
As a bureau of the Department of the Treasury and as one of the world's most efficient tax administrators, the IRS role is to help the large majority of compliant taxpayers with the tax law, while ensuring that the minority who are unwilling to comply pay their fair share. (Source: www.irs.gov)
This forum will allow you to share and ask job-related questions about this bureau. This is NOT the place to ask tax questions.

Check USAJOBS it’s portal The IRS portal looks the same as it has since my TO, it says 'you've been selected' for the GS9 position but nothing else has changed.

I was contacted exactly three weeks before my EOD to confirm my address for the materials they send. I got an email from my manager a week before EOD to confirm I received my shipments. Last email was a few days before EOD to go over the schedule.

Hi Everyone, Just wondering if someone else in the same boat as me. I’ve been referred to the selecting official but have had no contact. Didn’t even get an email that I’ve been referred. Anybody else waiting on a interview?

I am also waiting on an interview. My status shows qualifications under review and has all summer. I don't graduate college until the beginning of January, so I'm thinking that probably is why.

I had applied to the regular posting first, wanting to get it in before the cutoff date. Took the ROSA and then found the Pathways listing and applied to that one, hoping to cover all my bases.

I received the status of referred to selecting official about one month ago. Curious if anyone here has been selected for the following POD: Dallas, TX, Houston, TX, or Atlanta, GA?

I don't know if they'll continue hiring during the 2nd wave.

I don't know if they'll continue hiring during the 2nd wave. Hi Xfed77- Do you mean continue hiring period for the 2nd wave? As in they are done? Please clarify if you are able. What I meant is that I was informed by HR that they only hired GS-09s who are veterans during the 1st wave for Houston, TX. And that I do not know if Houston is going to be hiring more ROs from the same announcement during the 2nd wave or any at all. No knowledge. No information. No speculation. Got it?

My 2021 Timeline:
MAR - Application
MAY - ROSA
AUG (Beginning) - Referred
AUG (Mid) - Interview
AUG (EOM) - TO & Fingerprint
The interview also got me, I swear I was on the phone for barely 20 mins and that was it. Had all three of my location choices offer at a GS9 and was asked to pick one. TO had a start date of DEC. We'll see what happens next. Thanks for sharing your timeline. Mine is similar except no interview yet. APRIL (end) - applied MAY (end) - ROSA August (beginning) - referral email Still waiting. Has anyone interviewed for Jacksonville or Daytona Beach, FL? Congrats to all who have received FO’s! Received FO for Jacksonville today. Interviewed on 8/25/2021 TO 9/1/2021 Firm Offer Today
