SO YOU WANT TO BE A TAX PREPARER

Last month I offered some tax advice for new college graduates (see “Dear Graduate”).  Now some advice for graduates who are considering becoming a paid tax preparer, either full-time or part-time.

As you may know, I have been preparing 1040s as a professional tax preparer since February of 1972.  I love my profession, and share my advice and comments on the tax preparation business in a new e-book SO YOU WANT TO BE A TAX PREPARER.

As a potential new tax preparer, as my colleague Andy Frye of Pronto Tax School put it, “you don’t know what you don’t know”.  This book will help you to know what you don’t know and will provide the answers.

This book can also provide help to tax preparers who would like to expand their practice.

In this book I discuss in detail -

·         LEARNING HOW TO PREPARE TAX RETURNS

·         THE PTIN

·         TAX PREPARER MEMBERSHIP ORGANIZATIONS

·         CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION

·         ETHICAL STANDARDS AND PRACTICES

·         BUILDING A PRACTICE

·         USING A BLOG TO PROMOTE YOUR TAX PRACTICE

·         GETTING A CREDENTIAL

·         STRUCTURING YOUR TAX PRACTICE

The APPENDIX includes copies of a Code of Ethics, Standards of Professional Conduct, a sample Engagement Letter and the TAX PROFESSIONAL’S ONLINE RESOURCE GUIDE.

The cost of this book is only $5.45 delivered as a pdf email attachment, or only $9.45 for a print version sent via postal mail.
