"Where No Tax Rate Has Gone Before..."

  • NOTE: I have had problems posting the link (grrr to blogger).  The story is from The Hill (thehill.com) on Sunday morning, March 24.


  • The IRS recently acknowledged that two training videos which it prepared in 2010; parodies of "Star Trek" and "Gilligan's Island," were not a good use of $60,000 and that it would be more careful in use of tax dollars going forward.  Republican Charles Boustany (LA) blasted the videos as a waste of money.  One consolation for the IRS--Congress did see some training value in the "Gilligan" video; allowing the video to be shown to taxpayer assistance representatives.

    I am curious as to who approved the videos--though as government grants go; $60,000 is far from the biggest waste I have ever seen; especially since one of the videos actually worked.  Nevertheless, it was good to see that the IRS has "sobered up" in the meantime.

    Interesting post, appreciable reference, I really like what you've got here. One of my friends is a Denver CO tax accountant, so I get lots of advice from him, but this is an altogether different breath of fresh air.

These certifications are recognized nationwide in the United States. The test is available in many languages other than English, and is given in paper or computer version. Although both coursework and tests can be done online, some tests require a practitioner, which may mean that the online version must also be completed at the testing center. Recent events, however, have led to new uses for "online proctor".
