My brother-in-law decided to become an enrolled agent. He took the classes and got a job preparing taxes. What he didn't realize before he took the classes was he would have to continue taking classes every year. This year, he had to go to enrolled agent continuing education classes to meet IRS standards. My brother-in law loves to prepare taxes and he also loves to go to school and learn.
Next month, he has to take an enrolled agent ethics course. This class is important for his work. Ethics are extremely important when it comes to preparing taxes for people and dealing with the IRS. You never want to cheat on taxes or give the customer ideas on how they can cheat on their taxes. If you do, you get the customer and yourself in trouble with the IRS.
He told me the ea ethics course was pretty cool. It was an easy course that was also important. It is nice to know all the training enrolled agents have to go through to prepare for their job. They have to continue their education each year to meet all of the IRS requirements. I couldn't do it, so I am glad their are people like my brother-in-law who love to prepare taxes.

An Enrolled Agent Has To Keep Their Qualifications Up To Date
My brother in-law decided he was going to be an enrolled agent. He is going to school to take all of the courses that qualify him to prepare taxes. He keeps telling me about all the required classes he has to take. He has to take an ea ethics course because that is one of the qualifications. He is amazed with all the changes the IRS keeps making to the taxes each year.
He tells me that many people do not know all the work there is to keep up to date with all the tax changes. You don't go to school, get a degree and prepare taxes for the rest of your life. An enrolled agent has to go to enrolled agent continuing education yearly to keep up with the changes and qualification of their job. My brother in-law is amazed with the work it takes to keep up with our tax system.
I had no idea about taxes and enrolled agent education until my brother in-law told me the facts. Enrolled agents do a ton of work to make sure they do our tax preparation correctly each year. My brother in-law wants to make sure he is up to date with all of his qualifications so he works with a company who is an approved IRS approved provider. His new job seems cool, but the work he has to do each year to keep up with our taxes is more than I could ever had imagined.
