enrolled agent?
what is an enrolled agent?
As a small business owner you want to reduce your tax burden but may not know what kind of professional is most qualified for the job. To save money on taxes, should you work with a CPA, an accountant, or an enrolled agent? The facts may surprise you.
Enrolled agents are federally licensed tax professionals who have been authorized by the IRS to represent taxpayers in any matter in any state. EAs must adhere to strict ethical standards, pass a federal personal background check, and complete 72 hours of continuing education every three years to maintain status.
Enrolled Agents specialize in taxes
CPAs and accountants can prepare tax returns but their license does not require any tax expertise. Enrolled agents, however, specialize in taxes and have obtained an elite license from the IRS. If you’re looking for effective tax planning strategies and worry-free tax preparation at tax time, an EA is your best bet.
Enrolled Agents advise, represent, and prepare tax returns for individuals, partnerships, corporations, estates, trusts, and any entities with tax-reporting requirements. Enrolled Agents’ expertise in the continually changing field of taxation enables them to effectively represent taxpayers audited by the IRS.
