Taxpayer Authorization Forms

On November 1, 2024, the Oregon Department of Revenue (DOR) launched two new authorization forms and instructions, OR-AUTH-REP (Authorization to Represent) and OR-AUTH-INFO (Authorization to Receive Tax Information) to replace the Tax Information and Power of Attorney for Representation Form.

DOR staff received feedback from customers and tax professionals, and we simplified our process and made it more clear. Along with each form is a set of instructions.
