WASHINGTON, D.C. – On Friday, June 25 Congressman Jimmy Panetta (D-CA-20) and Congressman Tom Rice (R-SC-07) introduced the Taxpayer Protection and Preparer Proficiency Act. This legislation allows the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to regulate paid tax preparers and mandates that they meet minimum competency standards. Currently, no minimum federal competency standards for tax preparers exist. Tax preparers have no obligation to receive tax education, training, or competency requirements in tax return preparation, leaving families and individuals who rely on these services at risk. Due to that deficiency, the IRS receives tens of thousands of complaints per year regarding insufficient services. While tax preparers may be prosecuted for fraud, current precedent bars prosecution for incompetence. The Taxpayer Protection and Preparer Proficiency Act requires tax preparers to demonstrate competency in preparing returns, claims for refund, and associated documents. The le
