Kristin Faver Thomson, EA

I am an EA and this class went outside the realm of what I can do. I am not a financial planner and can get in trouble for suggesting that my clients get life insurance. It just made me a little uncomfortable. BUT it was very informative and detailed with specific instructions to make sure our clients get the best tax outcome possible.

Kenneth Lenz, CPA (US)

The instructor was very thorough and provided several additional ideas for added service to clients. Overall this was a good course. I would like to see another course like this that emphasizes the current year tax laws and bills under discussion for the upcoming tax year.
