Receiving a notice from the IRS can leave you feeling fearful, anxious, overwhelmed, or confused about what to do next. In these moments, expert help is essential – you need someone truly trustworthy who understands every step of the process. That’s where Enrolled Agents (EAs) come in. At Elite Tax Preparers, we’re proud to say that our team of pros are both enrolled agents, and our whole mission is about making working with the IRS less stressful for you.
Enrolled Agents are specially licensed by the IRS, which means they’ve got special powers to step up and represent you directly, no matter what tax issue you’re facing. They’re not your average tax preparers; EAs are the best of the best and can handle everything with the IRS on your behalf. That’s the peace of mind you get when you work with an enrolled agent at Elite Tax Preparers.
What Does Enrolled Agent Mean?
An Enrolled Agent is a federally licensed tax expert who can go toe-to-toe with the IRS for you. They hold the highest credentials you can get from the IRS, which translates to top-tier help for any tax problem you’ve got. Becoming an Enrolled Agent involves passing three challenging exams, undergoing background checks, and meeting continuing education requirements. We pretty much live and breathe taxes and IRS rules, making your life a whole lot easier!
How an Enrolled Agent Saves You Time
1. Talking Directly to the IRS for You
One of the best perks of working with an Enrolled Agent? You don’t have to talk to the IRS yourself. With a signed IRS Power of Attorney, your EA becomes your official contact—they make the calls, write the letters, and handle every step for you. No more endless hold times!
At Elite Tax Preparers, our enrolled agents have been in the IRS trenches for a combined 37+ years, so they know exactly what to do and say. They’ll keep you in the loop, but take the load off your shoulders.
Your EA can access all your tax information, review your case, and communicate directly with IRS representatives without involving you in unnecessary meetings or calls. That means things move faster and you get updates without the headache.
2. Full Representation, Start to Finish
Our Enrolled Agents can do it all when it comes to the IRS, including:
- Handling audits and audit support
- Sorting out collections and setting up payment plans
- Preparing Offers In Compromise
- Helping with appeals when you disagree with the IRS
- Stopping things like liens, levies, and wage garnishments
- Untangling tricky tax problems and making sure you stay in full compliance
With Elite Tax Preparers, your case gets handled from beginning to end by an enrolled agent focused only on getting you the best result.
3. Expert Negotiation With the IRS
EAs know the IRS system inside and out. That inside knowledge lets them get better results—like lower payments, penalty relief, or getting back on track with taxes—than most folks can manage on their own. If you’re worried about big tax bills, complicated cases, or want someone who speaks IRS, you can count on your EA.
What is Working With an EA Like?
Kicking Things Off: The Initial Consultation
First up, your EA will sit down with you—virtually or in person—and listen as you explain your tax situation. They’ll let you know what the next step is they recommend, and what the investment will look like to move forward.
IRS Power of Attorney—Letting Your EA Take the Reins
If you choose to work with our agent, you’ll sign IRS Form 2848, which lets your EA talk to the IRS for you. They get access to your records, handle the paperwork, and deal with IRS agents so you don’t have to. Once this is set up, your EA takes care of IRS calls and letters, keeping you out of the direct line of fire while keeping you updated.
Crafting Your Solution
They’ll check your records, review your standing with the IRS, and lay out what they see as your best options. At Elite Tax Preparers, every client gets this personalized attention from an enrolled agent who listens and makes a plan for you.
With everything in place and your green light given, your enrolled agent puts the plan into action. That might involve several types of tax resolutions, which can include negotiating a payment plan, challenging an IRS mistake, amending returns, or representing you during an audit.
At Elite Tax Preparers, you get a custom solution because every situation is different, and our enrolled agents use all their experience to get you the best deal possible.
You can concentrate on life or work while your EA sweats the details. That’s a load off your mind, and it means you have someone in your corner every step of the way.
Why Trust an Enrolled Agent?
