Follow these steps to become a Registered Tax Return Preparer:

Once you become an RTRP you must:

At renewal you are required to self-certify that you have completed or plan to complete your CE requirement by December 31. You are NOT required to upload supporting documentation.

Obtain 15 hours of continuing education (CE) from an IRS-approved provider annually
2 hours of ethics

Keep your information current by updating it as needed through your online PTIN account
