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.

If anyone takes this deal they’re gonna get let go and never going to get the money they’re owed.
If you work in a federal position your best bet is to fight them tooth and nail cause whatever candy they’re offering doesn’t exist.
They’re going to go after poor and middle class people.
Good time to remind people to file your tax returns as soon as possible if you’re expecting a refund, and delay your return as long as humanly possible with extensions if you’re expecting a bill.
Just to add full context, if you owe money and fill an extension till October you could have to pay a 25% penalty on what you owe.
