Course Preview
This AFTR course is a high-level, basic 1040 “refresher” course focusing on tax law and preparing 2025 individual tax returns. The 6-hour Annual Federal Tax Refresher (AFTR) Course includes 3 hours of exams containing 100 questions, which were first introduced by the IRS in 2015 as a part of the Annual Filing Season Program. This course is necessary for non-credentialed tax preparers (preparers that are not CPAs, EAs, CFPs, and Attorneys) who want to obtain the IRS Annual Filling Season Program (AFSP) - Record of Completion.
It has been designed to encourage non-credentialed tax preparers to be aware of the latest legislation changes regarding tax law. This 2024 Annual Federal Tax Refresher course is designed to meet the IRS Annual Filing Season Certificate program requirements. It discusses new tax laws and recent updates for the upcoming filing season, provides a general tax review, and examines important rules governing tax return preparer ethics, practices, and procedures.
This AFTR Course must be taken together with the test to earn the IRS Record of Completion. It will be an open-book exam, so you can access the reference material while attending the 3-hour exam. All topics in each of the three domains highlighted in the ‘Annual Federal Tax Refresher Course Outline’ document have been tested.
To qualify, the 100-question test administered over three hours must be completed before the 31st of December 2024 in preparation for the 2025 financial year. Once this 6-hour AFTR course is completed, attendees will be issued a Record of Completion that they can display and use to differentiate themselves in their professional careers. If we talk about representation rights, unenrolled return preparers with a valid PTIN and who hold a record of completion for BOTH the tax return year under examination and the year the examination is conducted may represent under the following conditions: Unenrolled return preparers with the necessary record(s) of completion may represent tax-payers only before revenue agents, customer service representatives, or similar officers and employees of the Internal Revenue Service (including the Taxpayer Advocate Service).
Please note that Enrolled Agents can take the AFTR course but cannot receive IRS CE Credits for the course. Please refer to the provided link for more information on professionals eligible to take the AFTR Course.

I passed the test the 1st time. I would have liked a higher score, but it shows it is doable. The course was good, the material was presented well by Jason and the contents made it easy to review certain sections. Thanks

This AFSP Course was one of the best I've taken. Although the videos were always interesting to watch, the presenter gave concise examples and often reiterated important points that applied to the exam.
