Enrolled Agents Are America’s Tax Experts
Not all paid return tax practitioners are equal!
Enrolled Agents (EA) are the only federally licensed tax practitioners who specialize in taxation and also have unlimited rights to represent taxpayers before the IRS.
Using an Enrolled Agent can save you significant time and effort in preparing your taxes. EAs are equipped to advise, represent, and prepare tax returns for individuals, partnerships, corporations, estates, trusts, and any entities with tax-reporting requirements.
Enrolled Agents:
- Must pass a stringent three-part test on taxation administered by the IRS which covers all aspects of the tax code
- Specialize in taxes; unlike attorneys or CPAs
- Are taxpayer representatives who receive their right to practice from the US government and are licensed in all fifty states.
Enrolled Agents also have:
An Emphasis on Ethics – The principal focus is honest, intelligent and ethical representation of taxpayers before the governmental agencies. EAs adhere to a stringent Code of Ethics as well as the Treasury Department’s Circular 230 regulations.
Proof of Expertise – Only enrolled agents are required to demonstrate to the IRS competence in all areas of taxation, representation, and ethics before they are given unlimited representation rights before IRS.
