The Tax
Law Institute (TLI) announced the establishment of a new certification
to support enrolled agents, CPAs and tax attorneys -- The Certificate in Pretrial Tax
Litigation Support. This certification can be earned through coursework specific to this
program or in conjunction with the existing U.S. Tax Court Non-Attorney Exam
Preparation Program offered at TLI.
Successfully
completing this unique program will allow the certificate holder to assist Pro Se
petitioners in the formulation of U.S. Tax Court petition planning, tax research
and document review prior to final preparation of the Tax Court petition by the
petitioner. Conducting specialized tax
research and taxpayer document review for attorneys specializing in tax
controversy is another option to capitalize on the knowledge gained by
successful completion of this certificate program.
Of the
approximately 23,000 Tax Court petitions submitted each year, only about 2400
Tax Court trials are actually held. About 85% of the remaining petitions are prepared and submitted by Pro
Se petitioners who need assistance with planning, tax research and document
review to have even the slightest chance of achieving limited success.
Become the
“Go-To-Expert” in this field in your region.
If you are an Enrolled Agent or a CPA you have the opportunity to earn
additional fees by representing the petitioner in “Docketed Appeals” to assist
in settling the case.
Certification
requires attendance of the classroom tutorial program, successful completion of
a written examination and payment of tuition and certificate fee.
Prior attendees of the US Tax Court
Non-Attorney Exam course (2008 testing cycle and earlier) can qualify through
successful completion of a written examination and payment of a testing fee and
certificate fee.
Candidates
for the 2010 US Tax Court Non-Attorney Exam can qualify for the certificate
through successful completion of a written examination and payment of the
certificate fee.
