Overview
- The Permanent Commission ratified Jennifer Krystel Castillo on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, by a 26–8 recorded vote that split largely along party lines.
- Castillo presented a plan to concentrate fiscal audits on high‑risk operations identified by automated risk‑analysis systems, citing examples such as invoice‑issuing firms (factureras), payroll companies that enable evasion, simulated deductions and undeclared income.
- Her operational reforms promise faster tax refunds, shorter resolution times, single representative information requests and a ban on simultaneous audits for the same taxpayer to reduce unnecessary burdens on compliant firms.
- The AGGC supervises about 15,644 large contributors who generate roughly 52% of federal tax revenue, and SAT data show only 2,480 audits or agile reviews were opened from 2023–2025, meaning about 6% of that roster faced fiscal action in that period.
- Supporters say Castillo’s mix of targeted enforcement and legal certainty could strengthen revenue collection and investor confidence, while the party‑line vote signals political scrutiny that may shape how the office implements its strategy.
