Abstract:
These regulations affect individuals who are eligible to practice before the Internal Revenue Service. These regulations also authorize the Director of Practice to act upon applications for enrollment to practice before the Internal Revenue Service. The Director of Practice will use certain information to ensure that: 1) enrolled agents properly complete continuing education requirements to obtain renewal; 2) practitioners properly obtain consent of taxpayers before representing conflicting interests; 3) practitioners do not use e-commerce to make misleading solicitations. REG-138637-07 contains proposed modifications revising the regulations governing practice before the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The proposed regulations affect individuals who practice before the IRS and providers of continuing education programs. The proposed regulations modify the general standards of practice before the IRS and the standards with respect to tax returns.
