Did the H.R. Block tax course which is a great value..then did 5 years working tax prep for an "enrolled agent" accountant. When you begin taxes for small corporations you enter into the vast world of bookkeeping
Tax Preparer

2. Apply to the state-board to take the test
3. Pass the 3 hour exam
4. Apply and pay for your PTIN (tax preparer number for the IRS)
5. Get a license
6. Get hired
7. Every year after that get 30 hours of continuous education
Thanks for sharing the steps!
Krista (FinePoints Admin)
What’s the 30 hours of continuous education?
@@fsb_-bf3thprobably extra modules
Similar to taking Life and Annuity State License.
@@fsb_-bf3th
It should be a refresher on what you learned when you studied for the exam.
I just happened on this site and this was just wonderful. My wife and I are wanting to start a business and this would be great. You were so thorough! Thank you so so much
Here in MS no education or tests are required to do bookkeeping or file taxes. Basically, a CPA is only required to audit public companies. I have a CPA, and I get more money from bookkeeping than taxes. Love the channel.
Tell me more abt CPA bookkeeping and required ?
I’m more than happy to discover this channel. I need to thank you for your time for this, particularly a fantastic watch!! I liked every little bit of it and I have subscribed you to look at new posts all the time.
Hi Adelita. Glad you are enjoying Morgan's channel and thanks for subscribing!
Krista (FinePoints Admin)
Thank you a million! Very useful information and I appreciate you’ve done that for us💐👍🏻
You are so welcome!
Excellent video!
Thank you very much for your hard work.
I like your video presentation. It is informative too, at the same time. Thanks a lot for your guidance!
Hi Henry! I'm glad you're enjoying Morgan's channel!

I’m enrolled in the H&R Block course, as I was unable to find a bookkeeping job. So I hope this puts my foot in the door. Unfortunately no office in my area does bookkeeping. I tried Intuit but never heard back from them. I’m also going to school at my local community college to get my certificate in bookkeeping.
This awesome! I am very interested in becoming a tax preparer here in Maine. I am currently a bookkeeper.
Hi Olivia! Glad you found this video helpful!
Krista (FinePoints Assistant)
Tax biz is $3,000, or $1,997 one time payment then $37/mth thereafter. It's the same rabbit hole marketing scheme that's being played out in this new online hustle economy with everything. It's cheaper to study on your own and take the test
You’re absolutely amazing
I hope you can help me with this question.
I worked with Hrblock the last season, now I would like to start my LLC for tax preparation. I can renew my PTIN for this upcoming tax season but I’m not sure if I do have to take the continued education again since I took the 18 hours couple month ago with hrblock platform but I decide to not go back with them for next season
Thank you for your video
Great video 👌
Great video. I believe there’s only four states that require a state licensure for taxes, Oregon, California, Maryland and I don’t know if the other one. In Texas where I live, I don’t have to take a state licensure. With that being said, though I do have a bookkeeping business and I’m gonna try to go for the enrolled agent.
How’s the progress on the EA coming along? I’ve been thinking about getting the EA certification.
@@wesjay7780 the EA is coming long great. I just bought the course from tax mama. I recommend you do the same thing we can maybe do a study group
@@tayarndt I was considering doing a Gleim self-study review course for under $700, but I looked into TaxMama, and that is a nice deal, especially if you’re getting actual lectures from somebody at designated times. I’ll most likely take the self-study route, but it doesn’t hurt to know another fellow tax friend :D , if you have Discord, we can keep in contact.
@@wesjay7780 well, here’s the other thing, because I am fully blind, I find that I would rather have the audio format. In addition, some of those other platforms are not accessible for me. So yeah, if you buy tax mama let me know because I would love to set up a group.
@@tayarndt I got you, sounds good and I will let you know! Have a good day, and it was nice talking :D
thanks for this video. Can everything be done online?
This video is misleading. To become a tax preparer you simply have to sign up for a course. Many tax preparers do not have to take a test with the IRS. This video is about how to become an enrolled agent which is way different than the title of the video
She literally said "this is all within Oregon" at 1:00. A basic tax prep in Oregon is a license. The EA test is way more involved.
She said exactly what u said at the beginning lol
Wait don't you have to be certified to prepare taxes, therefore wouldn't you need to take a course then take the exam, which is what she has stated?
Growth and Scope of this course in future
I would like to get the school information were your friend when to get certified? thank you for your help
Thank you for informative Vedio ..
I saw that you have to register with CTEC first, is that correct?
I’m interested to be a tax preparer .
If I take the course I can open an office?
I'm a tax preparer in California and the requirements are different in Oregon.
Yes, this video is based on Oregon requirements, but each state is somewhat different. Just a video to get an idea of what tax preparation is like :) -Gabe (FinePoints Admin)
Thanks

I’ve been having a horrible experience trying to become a tax prep. I’ve gone to my community college which doesn’t teach it to me, it’s only online so I’ve been teaching myself everything. I’ve been trying to gain experience and it’s been exhausting and frustrating. Not to mention YOU DO NOT NEED EDUCATION TO BE A TAX PREP. I’m wasting time and money just to gain experience. 😩
I'm sorry to hear you are having a hard time gaining the experience and education you need to become a tax preparer. I'll let Morgan know tax preparing is something you are looking for more information on.
Krista (FinePoints Admin)
I have tax classes available
What courses can you take for free? I was thinking about going to community college even though I have my bachelors degree.

Hello mam, I am bookkeeper in Indian but I will plan to move in Canada so that How to get job as bookkeeper in Canada????
You'll need to research this a bit, as Morgan lives in the US and really knows how to do it in the states. However, there are lots of Canadian bookkeepers, so if you join a few FB groups, I bet you'll find some who could help! -Gabe (FinePoints Admin)
Thank you Mam 😊
Could you suggest some expert Canadian bookkeepers like Morgan on UA-cam or Facebook?
What is the difference between accounting and bookkeeping
Here's a video that talks about just that! ua-cam.com/video/toh6M6mQCo0/v-deo.html

@@FinePointsBookkeeping Awesome! thanks!
@@zacharyholland1091 Accounting can entail much more than what you would do with typical bookkeeping role. You could be handling payroll or other functions within the organization like accounts payables and receivables. I am an Enrolled Agent which allows me to represent client with the IRS and with my Account Degree background, it helps to advise clients on best practices and sort of act as an CFO for small clients. A common activity is closing the books for year end, which entails knowing how to handle closing the books for year end. Bookkeeping is a great start to lots of accounting function, which CPA's like to ignore, but is vital to the basic functioning of businesses.
I could not find the resources for completing income tax preparation courses you mentioned at the end of this video.
Would you be kind enough to pm me it.
Thank you. I just subscribed to your channel.
