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. 

Enrolled Agents - EAs

Using an enrolled agent can save significant time and effort in tax preparation and its associated tasks. Enrolled Agents  are equipped to advise, represent, and prepare tax returns for individuals, partnerships, corporations, estates, trusts, and any entities with tax-reporting requirements.  

Enrolled Agents Continuing Education (CE) requirements ensure they have the knowledge to effectively represent taxpayers audited by the IRS despite the continually changing tax laws. In fact, EA members must fulfill continuing professional education requirements that exceed the IRS’ required minimum. 

Members of the NAEA Enrolled Agents provide two unique benefits to taxpayers.

Proof of Expertise – 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.
