Let's talk about Tax
Elizabeth Merk, EA
Speak with an IRS Enrolled Agent? What's that? Enrolled Agent (EA) is the only national credential that the IRS recognizes. That is because only the IRS offers the in-person proctored three part test. There are less than 40,000 individuals who hold this credential worldwide. You must be a former IRS employee or pass the tests.
Most folks don't notice that the A in CPA is for 'accounting' not tax. Like travel agent, most folks in the world have found it simple and efficient to automate accounting and travel.
