Directory of Federal Tax Return

Preparers with Credentials and Select

Qualifications

Anyone with a Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN) can prepare a tax return for a client.

However, tax return preparers have differing levels of skills, education and expertise. This

searchable directory is intended to help you with your choice by providing a listing of preparers in

your area who currently hold professional credentials recognized by the IRS or who hold an

Annual Filing Season Program Record of Completion.

Understanding Tax Return Preparer Credentials and Qualifications can help you learn more about

the different types of tax professionals.

Choosing a Tax Professional provides more guidance for making this important choice.

This directory is updated regularly and is current as of 02/22/2016. It may take up to four weeks

after the IRS receives an update for a tax return preparer's information to be added or revised in

the directory.

Search for Tax Return Preparers

Use this tool to research tax return preparers near you or to determine the type of credentials or

qualifications held by a specific tax professional. All tax return preparers are not in this

directory. This directory contains only those with a PTIN who hold a professional credential or

have obtained an Annual Filing Season Program Record of Completion from the IRS.

Note: Attorney and CPA credentials are self-reported to the IRS. The IRS verifies attorney and

CPA credentials before including them in the directory, but situations may exist where a

credential subsequently becomes invalid after verification. Users should rely on the source of a

credential (e.g. state board of accountancy or state bar) and not this directory for official current

status. Additionally, the IRS does not endorse any preparer or credential over another.
