What Are Enrolled Agent Requirements?

tax verbaige
Taxes and numbers can be fun if you have the right tools. Some people thrive in finding solutions to complicated tax situations. Some people just have the knack with finance, some people are relying on the tools and help of an enrolled agent. What is an enrolled agent? Don’t feel bad if you don't know.I didn’t know what the title stands for before I wrote this post either.


An enrolled agent, also known as an EA is a federally licensed tax expert. An individual with knowledge and experience in the field of taxes.  To become an enrolled agent, you must have ea cpe requirements that includes 16 hours of education annually, at least 2 hours of enrolled agent ethics course, and 72 hours every 3 years of enrolled agent continuing education. Enrolled agents have been trained and sworn-in to uphold ethical conduct by strict requirements of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Enrolled agents can represent taxpayers before all administrative levels of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for audits, collections, and appeals.

As such, there are software that help you do your taxes, or just learn to be a great accountant. Best yet, if you’re looking to get into the taxation industry, or become an enrolled agent, just follow the simple steps at enrolled agent continuing education.
