Continuing Professional Education Requirements

In addition to a competency exam, beginning in 2012 IRS Registered Tax Return Preparers must take 15 hours of continuing education annually. A listing of approved CPE providers may be found at: https://ssl.kinsail.com/partners/irs/publicListing.asp. Check your PTIN account for a start date for continuing education and for more guidance.

The same individuals exempt from testing are exempt from continuing education.
