Question: Enrolled Tax Agent vs CPA for Tax Career?
I would like to work in taxes independently and for a company part-time or during tax season. I am enrolled in a MS Accounting program and already have a degree BS Business Administration with a minor in accounting. My question is, I would like to open my own tax business in the future or work for the IRS or an Auditing firm in the tax department during tax season next year. Are there any Enrolled agents that work for other companies besides themselves? I want to know if I should take the CPA exam or EA exam? I am trying to land a job with an auditing firm in tax or the IRS plus eventually work independently in tax as a tax professional. I do not know any Enrolled Agents and most CPA’s do audits but I want to work in tax. I just do not know which will open doors faster to accomplishing my goals. Anyone with real life experience? Please help?
Answer: In a CPA firm, there are only two departments and they are audit and tax. As you can see, they are separate departments and only CPAs would be able to work in the audit department because audit has nothing to do with taxes. CPA firm only do audit on financial statements and company’s information system but not tax documents (that’s the job for the IRS). EA would only be able to work in the tax department of a CPA firm. But then again, EA exams are easier (and cheaper).
