Overview

  • The ATC’s plan director assigns its staff to support the 2027 IRPF campaign before assuming review and application functions in 2028.
  • Recruitment efforts aim to add 400 reinforcement agents in 2026 and up to 700 temporary agents in 2027 to serve roughly 360,000 taxpayers.
  • A bespoke IT platform is under development alongside plans for temporary offices to underpin the agency’s progressive tax-management role.
  • Full devolution hinges on Madrid approving amendments to three financing laws: LOFCA, the common-regime funding law and the state tax cession law.
  • ERC warns the timetable risks remaining “paper mojado” without legal reforms, even as President Illa pledges the ATC will operate at full capacity by 2028.
