No previous experience in tax work necessary!

Our students will be well prepared for the new IRS Registered Return Preparer Exam.

Although there currently are no federal registration or testing requirements for tax preparers, IRS has recently announced new rules that will require that tax preparers register with the IRS. They also announced that Registered Return Preparers would eventually have to take some form of a competency test. The registration requirement will probably be implemented as early as 2011 and the testing requirements within three years. By taking our course now-you are assured that you will have the training and, most importantly, the experience needed to pass the exam when it eventually gets implemented.

For residents of California, where tax preparers are currently required to be registered, we offer a special CTEC approved course that satisfies that state's legal requirements to become a “California Registered Tax Preparer”.
