Why Choose an Enrolled Agent
Enrolled Agents offer more than tax prep.
Enrolled Agents (EAs) are America’s Tax Experts®. They are the only federally licensed tax practitioners who both specialize in taxation and have unlimited rights to represent taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service.
Top Reasons to Hire an EA
- Enrolled Agents follow a strict Code of Ethics
- IRS continuing education keeps EAs informed about tax changes
- EAs pass a rigorous three-part Special Enrollment Exam (SEE)
- EAs can practice in any state
What Enrolled Agents Do
Enrolled Agents advise, represent, and prepare tax returns for individuals, partnerships, corporations, estates, trusts, and other entities.
In addition to tax preparation and representation, many Enrolled Agents also offer:
- Bookkeeping
- Financial planning or budgeting
- Payroll services
- Tax preparation and assistance
