Tax Preparers
Private Debt Collection
For your information, the IRS began a new private collection program of certain overdue federal tax debts selecting four contractors to implement it.
The IRS will always notify a taxpayer before transferring their account to a private collection agency (PCA). First, the IRS will send a letter to the taxpayer and their tax representative informing them that their account is being assigned to a PCA and giving the name and contact information for the PCA. This mailing will include a copy of Publication 4518, What You Can Expect When the IRS Assigns Your Account to a Private Collection Agency.
Only four private groups are participating in this program: CBE Group of Cedar Falls, Iowa; Conserve of Fairport, N.Y.; Performant of Livermore, Calif.; and Pioneer of Horseheads, N.Y. The taxpayer's account will only be assigned to one of these agencies, never to all four. No other private group is authorized to represent the IRS.

Enrolled Agents
Should I become an Enrolled Agent?
Return preparation is obviously a lucrative market. And unenrolled preparers that conduct tax resolution-style marketing to service the unfiled return market are doing quite well.
But if you have grander ambitions for your business... If you want to be of greater service to your clients... If you want to get it on the "big bucks" in the tax world... Then you should become an EA. Platinum offers an
Enrolled Agent Exam Review Course and
the IRS has begun allowing continuing education credit for each part of the Enrolled Agent Exam Review Course. This is a great time to think about becoming an Enrolled Agent.

Platinum is offering Enrolled Agent Exam Review course at 20% off the normal price of $299.00, that is only $239.20.

Certified Public Accountants
The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA), National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) and Prometric were please to announce the successful launch of an updated version of the Uniform CPA Examination.
The next generation Exam, which began testing on April 1, has added additional assessment of higher-order cognitive skills that test a candidate's critical thinking, problem solving and analytical ability. The Exam also makes greater use of task-based simulations (TBSs) as a means of assessing these higher-order skills. Recent research confirms that CPAs are now performing tasks that rely upon these skills earlier in their careers.
