Tax Preparer Credential Directory

By Nehemiah Jefferson, Esq., LL.M.

Does your tax return preparer or professional have a credential?  Is your preparer an Attorney, Certified Public Accountant, or Enrolled Agent? You can visit the IRS website to verify at https://irs.treasury.gov/rpo/rpo.jsf.

Since many tax problems originate as a result of the tax return, it is very important that taxpayers thoroughly vet and hire a tax professional that is competent, credentialed, and has good character.
