Brief History of IRS. Origin. The roots of IRS go back to the Civil War when President Lincoln and Congress, in 1862, created the position of commissioner of Internal Revenue and enacted an income tax to pay war expenses. The income tax was repealed 10 years later.
World War I. Despite expansion during Woodrow Wilsonâs first term as president, the federal government on the eve of World War I remained small. In 1914, federal spending totaled less than two percent of GNP. The top rate of the recently enacted federal individual-income tax was seven percent, on income over $500,000, and 99 percent of the population owed no income tax.
