A White House
official on Monday confirmed reports that Trump's 35-year-old
daughter would be getting her own West Wing space, as well as
access to classified information and a government-issued phone.
She is not expected to have an official title and will not be
paid a salary.
Ivanka Trump will be joining her husband, Jared Kushner, who is
a chief adviser to the president and is a regular presence at
his father-in-law's side.
When Kushner's job was announced earlier this year, aides said
Ivanka would not take on a role in her father's White House but
would focus on settling her family in Washington.
Since then, she has been a frequent behind-the-scenes adviser.
Last Friday, she sat next to visiting German Chancellor Angela
Merkel when Merkel visited the White House.
