Revenue Director Mark Schuling to Head FTA

Iowa Department of Revenue Director Mark Schuling is set to become the President of The Federation of Tax Administrators (FTA) in the next few weeks. On Tuesday, June 15, the newly elected President, West Virginia Tax Commissioner, died suddenly. Because Director Schuling was recently elected First Vice President he will now go before the organization at a Board of Directors meeting next week to be voted President. FTA is an organization comprised of all of the state tax commissioners.

The Federation of Tax Administrators (FTA) was organized in 1937 to improve the quality of state tax administration by providing services to state tax authroities and administrators. These services include research and information exchange, training, and intergovernmental and interstate coordination. The Federation also represents the interests of state tax administration before federal policymakers where appropriate.
