Circular 230 and Rogue Return Preparers 2 Credits
Select your learning mode
Preparing tax returns doesn't necessitate professional status, but it does demand strict adherence to regulations when handling tax-related matters and representing clients before the IRS.Â
Circular 230 serves as the definitive guidebook the United States Treasury employs to govern and regulate these activities. The consequences for violating statutes and regulations related to tax preparation can be severe, with return preparers facing sanctions, penalties, and, in some cases, imprisonment. For CPA firms that are heavily involved in tax preparation, understanding and abiding by Circular 230 is essential. This comprehensive course is indispensable, providing insights that empower CPAs to navigate the intricate rules confidently. Yearly, numerous return preparers violate these regulations, only to be identified and penalized by the IRS.Â
Join this CPE Course to equip CPAs with a thorough understanding of the rules, ensuring compliance and instilling confidence when delivering tax preparation and IRS representation services to clients.

I thought the course "Circular 230 and Rogue Return Preparers" by Robert Nordlander, CPA, CFE was excellent, well defined, and very well presented. The course was very well organized, comprehensive, and the instructor provided many great examples from his in depth experience. I would highly recommend the course and would like to take other course offerings by him. Thanks for a great course!

myCPE is a great value! The instructional on demand webinars are great as I can learn on my time, anytime of the day or night. I can also "rewind" the information, this is the added plus for note taking, etc. In live seminars, sometimes the speaker goes to fast and you miss info. Thank you!
