What is an Enrolled Agent? 4 An enrolled agent is a person who has earned the privilege of representing taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service by either passing a three-part comprehensive IRS test covering individual and business tax returns, or through experience as a former IRS employee. Enrolled agent status is the highest credential the IRS awards. Individuals who obtain this elite status must adhere to ethical standards and complete 72 hours of continuing education courses every three years. Enrolled agents, like attorneys and certified public accountants (CPAs), have unlimited practice rights. This means they are unrestricted as to which taxpayers they can represent, what types of tax matters they can handle, and which IRS offices they can represent clients before. Learn more about the rules governing the practice of enrolled agents in Treasury Department Circular 230 (PDF). https://www.irs.gov/tax-professionals/enrolled-agents/enrolled-agent- information 4/6/2020 Everything About EA Exam © www.IRSExams.school 2020

RTRPs and AFSP
The mandatory RTRP (Registered Tax Return Preparers)
designation ended. The IRS lost the lawsuit and did not appeal
(Loving v IRS
http://www.cadc.uscourts.gov/internet/opinions.nsf/B63C3129A4FE761985257C7C00539949/
$file/13-5061-1479431.pdf ).
Why I am telling you about the RTRP? Because…even though it
has been replaced by the AFSP – RTRPs still have special
privileges AND Circular 230 still talks about RTRPs.
The replacement? A VOLUNTARY program called the Annual
Filing Season Program (AFSP) which provides a Record of
Completion. https://www.irs.gov/tax-professionals/annual-filing-
season-program
4/6/2020 Everything About EA Exam © www.IRSExams.school 2020

The AFSP Certificate
• To qualify, you must get 18 hours of continuing education, including:
• a 6 hour federal tax update course
• AND pass a 100 Question Exam EACH YEAR!
• PLUS take an additional 12 hours continuing education annually.
• 2 hours of Ethics courses
• 10 hours of federal tax courses
• For former RTRPs, the IRS gives you a special privilege for
reduced AFSP education requirements.
• Avoid the 6-hour course, no annual 100 question exam – and only
need 15 hours CPE https://www.irs.gov/tax-professionals/reduced-
requirements-for-exempt-individuals-for-the-annual-filing-season-program-
record-of-completion
• This benefit applies to several other folks, too. Like those who passed Part 1 of
the EA exam, CA, OR & MD licensees and a few others.
Frankly, it’s easier to be an EA. Once you pass the 3 exams,
you don’t have to take any more exams – Ever!
Just keep up with the continuing education.

NEWS! What the Exam Covers
Be acutely aware, the exam does cover the Further Consolidated
Appropriations Act passed in December 2019.
Those 715 pages included two major tax bills –
• the Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act
(SECURE Act) and
• the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act (TCDTRA)
It does NOT cover the CARES Act or any law passed after December
31, 2019
4/6/2020 Everything About EA Exam © www.IRSExams.school 202019
Scoring, Passing, Re-testing,
Prometric conducted a survey of enrolled agents to determine the tasks
that they perform and the knowledge needed to perform those tasks.
Based on the survey, a test blueprint was developed as well as test
questions.
• Exam questions and scores based on quantitative analysis.
• Exam questions no longer have absolute scores – like 1 point for T/F, 2
points for multiple choice, 3 points for problems.
• Scoring developed interactively within the software based on prior
testing results and refined with this year’s examinations.
• Test includes experimental questions that won’t be scored
• Passing = 105 (range 40-130)
• Failing messages, coded 1, 2, or 3
• Re-take each ‘Part’ up to 4 times during testing window
• TaxMama® (Re)scheduling Strategy if you don’t pass

Score Report
4/6/2020 Everything About EA Exam © www.IRSExams.school 202021
Retention of Passed Exams
Once you pass the first exam you take, you have up to
two years to finish all three exams.
For instance, you pass Part 3 on May 16, 2020. You
have until May 16, 2022 to finish Parts 1 and 2. (I would
aim for the day before, though.)
Track the dates carefully, so you don’t miss by one day
or two.
In fact, if the deadline is getting close, take it at least 2
days early – just in case you need one more attempt!
4/6/2020 Everything About EA Exam © www.IRSExams.school 202022
Passing Rates
Most scores have improved dramatically since 2008. Except in
Part 1. Those passing rates are lower now, than in 2008.
Looking at scores in the summer (after tax season):
• Average passage rates for folks taking Part 1 in 2019 is
about 68% in the summer. The passage rate drops to around
55% in January and February.
• Average passage for folks taking Part 2 was about 70% in
2019 – just a tiny bit better than before. Again, the passage
rates drop in January and February – to around 66%
• Average passage rates of folks taking Part 3 is around 90%
in 2019, dropping to 85% in January and February
4/6/2020 Everything About EA Exam © www.IRSExams.school 202023
Average Passing Rate Chart
On the whole, for 2019 people did worse
on Part 1, much better on Part 2 – and about the same on Part 3

Alert – Any COVID-19 Issues?
We’ll get back to information about the exam itself in a moment
Here are questions the IRS/Prometric team may want to address on the site
https://www.prometric.com/test-takers/search/irs
https://www.prometric.com/corona-virus-update
1) Will the exam be delayed because those who write the questions
won't be able to meet in person to perform the usual reviews?
2) Will the Prometric sites need to be reconfigured to increase
space between candidates, and to clean or disinfect each workstation
after each tester?
a) Will they be able to accommodate fewer people?
and if so, will each location post information about limitations and such.
b) Will they need more time between candidates?
c) Will candidates have to wear masks and/or plastic gloves?
What else haven't I through of that your team is already addressing?
4/6/2020 Everything About EA Exam © www.IRSExams.school 2020Alert –COVID-19 Issues - Answers 25
https://www.prometric.com/corona-virus-update
• Candidates will be allowed to wear masks and
gloves –
here are a list of permissible items -
https://www.prometric.com/sites/default/files/2020-
03/Permissible-items_20200310_5.pdf
• Cleaning – operations include regularly cleaning
high-touch surfaces (ex. test station keyboard keys,
mouse, biometric touch chip device) and providing
disposable wipes so that common surfaces can be
wiped.
• They recommend you use their self-service, online
scheduling services at www.prometric.com
• Confirm the status of your test center by
visiting www.prometric.com/closures.
•
4/6/2020 Everything About EA Exam © www.IRSExams.school 202026
What’s in the Exam?
• Teams of EAs drawn from the National Association of Enrolled Agents
(NAEA) and the National Association of Tax Professionals (NATP)
review and update prior year questions.
• EAs create new questions. Provide the 4 answer choices. Provide the
legal source for the answer – i.e. Code Section, Reg, Rev. Ruling, etc.
• Once you become an EA and join NAEA or NATP, you can apply to
participate.
• IRS and EAs review the new questions and overall exam
• People who teach the exam or develop materials may not participate
• The questions were intended to be designed to test for the skills an EA
with two years experience should have.
• Frankly, the questions cover far more complex issues than EAs
with 5 or 10 years experience often encounter.
• Too broad a base of data to learn easily – so you have to study a lot!

Study Time – in General
A common question: Do you have an estimate of number of hours to invest in preparing for
the exam for someone entirely new to tax law/preparation?
• We have known people to go through the whole program and pass all 3 exam parts in as
little as 6 weeks (Tim) – or three weeks with other tools (Ishaan)
• Some people take a few years to free up the time to study and get past health, personal,
family and work problems. (But we’re here when you’re ready.)
• To JUST pass the exam, no education?
a. With experience and training – invest at least 30 hours per exam – double for Part 2
• Plus the time to watch the class videos
b. With only individual prep experience – invest 50 hours for Part 1, 120 hours for Part
2, and 40 hours for Part 3
c. With no experience and no education – double the study time.
• To pass the exam AND learn?
• 128 class hours over 6-7 months + 72 hours of final reviews
• Plus at least 4 hours per week private or study buddy time
• You will end up not just passing the class – but learning to be the best tax
professional ever! (see what Bradshaw Squires said recently!)

Over the years, I've attended many lectures.
I can't remember any being as good as your presentations.
You have an excellent style that makes learning and
retention much easier.

I just came back from Part 3 and I passed!!
I can only say thank you a million!!
The exam was tough, but I was well prepared thanks to your courses
and practice reviews as well as the exam questions from the Fast Forward
Academy.
I spent much more time in preparing for this exam (much more than for the
other two) and it seems that this is the area that seriously challenged me the
most.
Eva you’re AWESOME and your courses are incredible! Thank you! They
taught me everything I needed to know and I couldn’t have done it without you
(and Susan…her farmer review was perfect)
[He actually had farmer clients that were helped by these classes.]

I just wanted to say thank you so much for your help. I was able to
pass all 3 SEE tests the first time around and could not have done it
without you. Besides what I learned in school and doing my own
personal & some family taxes, I have ZERO tax experience.
I initially wanted to learn taxes to help my husband understand the
taxes he will pay for his trucking business he started last year but
thanks to your classes, I'm planning to have my own virtual Accounting
and Tax business. I completed Form 23 & applied for EA status today -
Yaaay!
I want to provide bookkeeping and tax services to truckers like my
husband. I am an Accountant and this will be a side hustle for me, but I
hope it will grow into something bigger.
