There are over 11,000 members of the National Association of Enrolled Agents, who are federally-authorized tax practitioners empowered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury to represent taxpayers before all administrative levels of the Internal Revenue Service for audits, collections, and appeals.
They earn their license either by passing a 2-day examination on all aspects of the tax code, or by having worked at the IRS for five years in a position which regularly interpreted and applied the tax code and its regulations. Members of the NAEA have to do at least 30 hours of professional education each year to keep their knowledge up to date.
Enrolled Agents advise, represent, and prepare tax returns for individuals, partnerships, corporations, estates, trusts, and any entities with tax-reporting requirements. Taxpayers looking for an Enrolled Agent can search by state or specialty on the NAEA home page.
