"Here's a partial list of functions that directly impact taxpayers and would typically be put on hold if the government shuts down:

No tax refunds issued
No processing of non-disaster relief transcripts
No processing of forms 1040X, amended returns
No non-automated collections
No audit or examinations (some exceptions apply)
No whistleblower office activity

Here's a partial list of functions that directly impact taxpayers which will typically continue if the government shuts down:

Processing of returns with payments
E-filing
Mailing tax forms
Appeals (statutory deadlines will not be changed)
Call centers (only during filing season)
Civil and criminal tax cases
Certain communications to taxpayers
Active criminal investigations
IRS.gov

To facilitate those activities, the IRS anticipates that 35,076 employees, or 43.5% of the total employee population, would be retained during a shutdown."
