Download or read book How to Review Tax Returns written by Edward Mendlowitz Cpa and published by . This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reviewing tax returns is a key part of tax preparation. It also is an area vulnerable to major bottlenecks and backlogs. Part of the problem is that there is no information or training specifically for reviewers... until now. Inevitably, firms have more preparers than reviewers. The latter are highly skilled professionals who are more difficult to train or find. Therefore, you must consider ways to reduce review time, even at the expense of adding preparer time. This book discusses methods to reduce review time, establishes who should do the review, distinguishes between content and issues reviews, identifies specific items for the reviewers to check, and offers administrative procedures to facilitate the review process. Reviewers are not born complete and ready to go, they are developed. The problem with many firms is that they take a reasonably good tax return preparer, with above average tax knowledge and they make them a reviewer, either on purpose or by default. In many firms a partner doubles as a reviewer. In some cases this partner does not even have reasonable tax knowledge, but they do the job because it needs to get done. This is not acceptable and does not assure a good product. There is a need and hunger for information on how to more effectively review returns, and this book is the response. Read the book, reread sections, use it as a reference source. Make your review process more effective. - from the Introduction

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you become a Registered Tax Return Preparer (RTRP)? You do not need an advanced degree, or even a college education; however, it does require some work. First, you must prepare for the IRS competency exam. The IRS has two separate tests that you can take depending on the type of returns you will file. This course covers both tests and provides FREE access to an online test bank for you to practice. Practice exams are also available online. We designed this course with you in mind, utilizing the experience of Enrolled Agents, CPA's and former IRS employees. In addition to providing you with a solid foundation in tax knowledge, this course has the essential material you must know to pass the test. New regulations require all paid tax return preparers-other than certain exempt individuals-to register for a PTIN, pass a competency exam, and complete 15 hours of annual continuing education. These registered tax return preparers will need to follow the rules in Circular 230 but are not enrolled to practice before the IRS.

Download or read book Return Preparer Review written by Internal Revenue Internal Revenue Service and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-01-13 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of various forms of third party assistance in tax return preparation in the United States has become increasingly important. For 2007 and 2008, over 80 percent of all federal individual income tax returns were prepared by paid tax return preparers or by taxpayers using consumer tax preparation software. The IRS acknowledged this trend with the inclusion of the following objectives in its strategic plan: 1) Strengthen partnerships with tax practitioners, tax return preparers, and other third parties in order to ensure effective tax administration; and 2) Ensure that all tax practitioners, tax return preparers, and other third parties in the tax system adhere to professional standards and follow the law. In June 2009, IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman launched the Return Preparer Review to help accomplish these objectives. The IRS sought to have its review process be an open and transparent discussion of the issues with the tax return preparer community, the associated industry, consumer advocacy groups, and the American public. The IRS solicited input from a diverse community of stakeholders through multiple outlets. The IRS thanks the hundreds of individuals and organizations who took part in this review and looks forward to a continuing productive relationship to implement the recommendations in this report.
