1 Chairman Wyden, Ranking Member Hatch, and distinguished Members of theCommittee:
Thank you for inviting me to testify about the status of federal tax return preparation in the United States.1 Given the critical role that preparers play in tax compliance, I believe it is in the best interest of taxpayers and tax administration to establish minimum standards for the profession. I say this based on my longstanding and personal involvement with this issue. Shortly after I graduated from college in the mid-1970s, I hung out a shingle and held myself out as a return preparer. I had been a Fine Arts major, so to say the least, I was not a tax expert. But in that period, tax software was not yet widely available, so an individual wanting to prepare tax returns had to learn the basics. I took this endeavor seriously, and ultimately, I believe I did a good job for my clients. Even then, however, taxpayers would have been better served if return preparers were required to demonstrate basic competency in tax return preparation. Today, because of changes in technology, the need for standards is much greater.
