For IRS jobs critical to running its information-technology systems, this section extends special hiring and pay authority — normally due to expire earlier — through September 30, 2025, and updates some outdated cutoff dates in the underlying civil-service rules.

For any position critical to running the IRS's information technology operations, this section changes how three sections of title 5's civil service law apply: (1) section 9503 applies with the deadline "September 30, 2013" replaced by a period running from this section's enactment through September 30, 2025, skips one particular limitation in that section, and updates a 1998 date reference to instead point to the enactment of the Taxpayer First Act; (2) section 9504 applies the same way, extending its "Before September 30, 2013" deadline everywhere it appears to run through September 30, 2025; and (3) section 9505 applies the same extended deadline, and replaces the phrase "significant functions" with "the information technology operations."
