Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 requires federal agencies to develop, procure, maintain, or use electronic and information technology to make accessible all information provided to individuals with no disabilities to those with disabilities or impairments.

The IRS must ensure that all readers, viewers, and users of IRS products, internally and externally, with disabilities have comparable access to and use of information and data provided to individuals without disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on the IRS.

The IRS Design Services Office is not responsible but may assist with identifying when graphic content needs to be made Section 508 compliant.
