Greetings!

Hello,

We have once again been approved by the IRS to offer an additional IRS CE course. If anyone is interested in learning more about preparing small business returns this course is for you. In addition, once you complete our IRS RTRP course you will receive 15 IRS CE credit hours. If you already purchased this course prior without it, we would like to extend a 15 IRS CE course at no charge to you. Please call me for the details.

Remember, We are still offering the 15 hour IRS CE course to our customers for 15 dollars. Please use promo code 15 when checking out to receive this amazing offer. We have also added an offer to our California and Oregon customers as well. See below for more details.

Lastly, as I mentioned in the last newsletter, have you ever thought of adding a tax school to your tax preparation service? Platinum is now offering two ways for you to do so. The first one is if you have a website you can add a link to your website to Platinum's website and you can become an affiliate of Platinums and receive a referral fee for each course purchased. The second way, if you have multiple offices with at least a staff of 100, we can design a tax school website using your existing website's template. If you are interested, please contact me directly.

Sincerely,

Lauren Zago

Important Updates for Tax Preparers

Platinum Professional Services IRS Sends Test Results; First Registered Tax Return Preparer Certificates

The Internal Revenue Service today announced that it has begun providing test results to tax return preparers who have taken the new return preparer competency test. Those who pass the test and a tax compliance check will be given a new designation: Registered Tax Return Preparer.

Since the test became available in November 2011 it has been in a calibration phase as the IRS validated the test questions and set the passing score. This phase has now ended. The 120-question test has a perfect score of 500. Preparers must score 350 or higher to receive a passing grade.

For more information check out our blog.

News

As banks process the backlog of foreclosures that have been shelved for the last eighteen months, Notaries will increasingly be called on.

The possibility of a national mortgage servicing standard including Notary training will force financial institutions across the nation to strengthen their internal policies and procedures. This means that more Notaries will be needed in the new future.
