Enrolled Practitioners (EA vs CPA)
There are only 3 types of Tax Practitioners (licenses) that have unlimited representation rights before the IRS known as Enrolled Practitioners. Each one serves a different need/purpose. Tax Attorneys specialize in court matters, EAs specialize in taxation and CPAs specialize in accounting.
Tax Attorney
Expertise: Court Matters
You would engage a Tax Attorney if you have a tax issue that rises to the level of the US Tax Court, District Court or Supreme Court. Tax issues that don’t rise to this level (IRS letters, notices, audits, settlements, payment plans, etc.) may be more affordably handled by an Enrolled Agent. Additionally, if you are in a highly litigious industry or have entity structure concerns (liability exposure) these matters should be discussed with an Attorney. Attorneys must have a law degree and pass the bar exam which gives them the right to practice in a court of law.
IRS Enrolled Agent
Expertise: Taxation
Enrolled Agent is the highest credential the IRS awards (view on IRS website). EAs have full representation rights before the IRS just like Attorneys and CPAs. Unlike CPAs that specialize in accounting, EAs specialize in taxation offering the highest level of tax planning, tax preparation, and tax issue resolution. If lowering your taxes and staying IRS compliant are your biggest concerns (as a W2 taxpayer or small business owner), then an Enrolled Agent would be right for you. Many EAs have a Master’s Degree in Taxation and must pass the IRS Enrolled Agent exam (all 3 exam parts specific to taxation and IRS representation/resolution).
Cert. Public Accountant
Expertise: Accounting
You would engage a Certified Public Accountant if you run a business that requires advanced or obscure accounting (traditionally, you wouldn’t hire a CPA if you don’t own a business). As the name implies, their area of expertise is advanced accounting. Most small business get by just fine with a good bookkeeper or app/software but if your business is large, publicly traded, requires audited financials, advanced forecasting, inventory, etc., then a CPA might be right for you. Most CPAs have a Master’s Degree in Accounting and must pass the CPA exam.
Unenrolled Practitioners:
Unenrolled Practitioners are those tax preparers that do not posses the formal education, licensure and/or continuing education of an Attorney, EA or CPA. One does not have to hold a license to prepare taxes. If you are a mid-high income earner or small business owner and choose to work with an unenrolled preparer, you do it at your own risk. Additionally, because they do not hold one of the 3 licenses permitted by the IRS, they have little/no representation rights if the IRS comes knocking.
