FAQs

How does The Income Tax School compare to other tax schools?

We cannot comment on the courses offered by other tax schools. However, we can tell you how our courses differ from many of our competitors. The Income Tax School (ITS) curriculum developers and instructors are all experienced and practicing tax professionals, which ensures that our courses provide practical knowledge that can be applied by graduates in their tax practices. ITS is certified by the State Council of Education for Virginia (SCHEV) as a private career school and has been operating for more than 20 years (since 1989). Our founder and CEO has been a tax industry executive for more than 40 years and has managed hundreds of tax preparation offices employing thousands of tax preparers in several states. Our course content goes through rigorous editing processes and is high quality. In fact, ITS is ranked by TrendLists as the #1 site for online tax education.Back To Top

Where can I find information about the IRS Exam and where I can take the test?

Currently, the IRS does not have a mandatory program for tax preparers. The IRS does have a voluntary Annual Filing Season Program (AFSP) for all unenrolled tax preparers. We recommend that all unenrolled tax preparers complete this program annually. You can learn more about the AFSP at the link below.

I heard the IRS is now regulating tax return preparers. What does that mean for people new to the industry and those already in the industry?

New regulations require all paid tax return preparers to obtain a Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN). The cost to obtain your PTIN is $64.25. Beginning Fall 2011, people who do not already have a PTIN will need to pass a competency test and background check. If you have already registered for your PTIN before the exam is available, you will have until December 31, 2013 to pass the IRS basic test of competency. Once you pass the exam, you will become an IRS Registered Tax Return Preparer (RTRP). Exception if you are an attorney, CPA or Enrolled Agent (and are active and in good standing with your licensing agency) you are exempt from the test requirement.Beginning 2012, the IRS will require 15 hours of continuing education for all registered Tax Preparers. Exception if you are an attorney, CPA or Enrolled Agent (and are active and in good standing with your licensing agency) you are exempt from the continuing education requirement. These professional accreditations generally already have continuing education requirements. The annual CE for Registered Tax Return Preparers must include:

  • 10 hours of federal income tax law
  • 3 hours of federal income tax law update
  • 2 hours of ethics

Our Comprehensive Tax Course provides the educational foundation necessary to successfully pass the IRS Competency Exam (Wage and Non-business Income Form 1040 Examination).

The Course

The Course is written very well. The subject material is explained in great detail! My personal concern is that I'm dislexic and it is taking me longer to read through than the projected time of the course.
On another note, the support department is absolutely phenomenal and very quick to respond. I know I'll get through it with their exceptional help and my commitment to complete the Course!
