Enrolled Agent
Enrolled Agents are America’s Tax Experts
Enrolled Agents (EAs) are America’s Tax Experts. EAs are the only federally licensed tax practitioners who specialize in taxation and also have unlimited rights to represent taxpayers before the IRS.
Just because a person has the EA license may not make him or her the best choice for your tax purposes. Your decision should be based on your particular tax situation. You can learn more about enrolled agents at http://www.naea.org or https://www.irs.gov/tax-professionals/enrolled-agents/enrolled-agent-information.
Only enrolled agents are required to demonstrate to the IRS their competence in all areas of taxation, representation and ethics before they are given unlimited representation rights before IRS. Unlike attorneys and CPAs, who are state licensed and who may or may not choose to specialize in taxes, all enrolled agents specialize in taxation.
In addition to the stringent testing and application process, the IRS requires enrolled agents to complete 72 hours of continuing education, reported every three years, to maintain their enrolled agent status. National Association of Enrolled Agents members are held to a higher standard; they are obligated to complete 30 hours per year (for a total of 90 hours per three year period). Because of the expertise necessary to become an enrolled agent and the requirements to maintain the license, there are only about 46,000 practicing enrolled agents.
