Valuable Lesson About Preparation of Joint Tax Returns Learned to Become a CPA - To become a CPA and work in the tax industry an individual is certain to encounter a variety of unusual situations. In particular, a CPA must exercise diligence in assessing circumstances where innocent spouse claims might arise. These measures protect spouses from the tax liability on a joint return that was created by a spouse or former spouse. Innocent spouse claims often land in tax court. Therefore, any CPA involved in these matters must assure that the tax returns involved are accurately prepared. But more action is required than merely deploying the rules from the tax section of CPA exam courses. When a marital conflict exists, an accountant should caution a spouse about the possib...

I have passed part 3 of the SEE exam, Thanks to Fast Forward for not only the format of your course, I got the concept and the rationale. I will recommend you heartily in the future, again thanks for a succesful ending. Pete E. Again, thank God for FFA!! If this EA exam is a horse race, I've won two legs of the "Triple Crown." When we last spoke you and I agreed Part 3 might be the best path to take for a confidence builder. I worked the Part 3 question bank 502 times and was at 75%. Near the end I was actually at about 90%. When I was doing 20 questions I was hitting about 18 right. Now it's off to the races and I'm probably a longshot for a first timer for Part 2, but sometimes even the lonshots win the race!! Thanks for everything, I've saved my SEE simulator for Part 2. I'll keep you posted. Rick F. I completed the final exam last month and because of your system, I passed all three exams on the first attempt. In fact, I was so well prepared that I completed each exam in less than 1 hour. The Fast Forward system was worth the money and more. I can't thank you enough! Charles W. Your exam study materials were so helpful, I have been preparing taxes for over 5 years and without those materials I would have failed each exam had I not prepared. I did pass them all on the first try. Scott S. Fantastic system. Passed all three parts on my first try and got it done in less than 7 months. David J. I took all three parts of the SEE and passed Parts 1 and 3 on the first try. I'll be taking Part 2 for the third time in June and I will pass at that time!!. My failure to pass Part 2 is no reflection of the Fast Forward Academy materials; they are fantastic! I was unable to schedule sufficient time to study all the materials thoroughly before the beginning of tax season. I'm glad I chose Fast Forward; the combination book and computer method made studying much more efficient and practical! I'm hoping to use the Registered Tax Return Preparer materials for my father to take the RTRP test this year. Bonnie M. Thank you for the most excellent free test bank and practice exams! I credit them for my recently passing Part 1. Used a brand-X study text, but had trouble coordinating with your exams.I'm gonna be buying your book for the next two parts! Thanks again, Ken L. I used the EA book, part-1 & the free online test bank as my preparation for my EA exam. I spent my little time at night for about 2 months for the study & review. Guess what, I came to the testing center with the confidence that I will pass and I did pass the 1st one easily. I have no time to work on part 2 & 3, but I will try my best. I strongly believe Fast Forward Academy provides EA candidates great resouce for passing the exam the first time. Thinh N. Thank you for all you did to make sure we had access to the Fast Forward program. In past years I ordered the study materials for the EA exam and was totally overwhelmed by the material I received. This program is great. I have passed the Individual and Representation portions of the EA Test and will be studying the Business portion heavily over the next month to get that one over with also. Can’t thank you enough. This is a great product and I will surely recommend it to other people interested in the EA testing or the Taxpayer’s Test. Janeen C. Hi there, I just wanted to let you know today I have passed the part 1, on my first try. Thanks. Sabahudin J. Hello, I just wanted to thank you for your help in passing the EA exam. Your test bank was invaluable in preparing me for the exam. The ability to go though questions with such detailed explanations really gave me the edge I needed to pass all parts. Sid E. I like to thank Fast Forward Academy for providing excellent study materials. Today I successfully passed SEE Pt 3. I am definitely on my way to becoming an EA. I passed all three tests on the first attempt. Kudos!! Herman W. I loved this course and the practice exams, which were so beneficial in instilling a level of confidence when I took the exams which I otherwise would not have had. Definitely worth the expense the time spent. Deborah T. I like the new site, it is even better than before the change. I passed all three parts of the EA in three months (May to July 2010) using primarily your book and the online question bank and the simulation tests. I especially like the measurement of progress and against the community. This feature is very innovative... Thanks for your material! It is very effective! Evelyn S. Hello Fast Forward Guys! I would like to let you know I find your test bank very helpful but even more so the timed tests. I took my SEE part 1 yesterday and passed. I really feel your practice exams helped. It helped me realize I was moving too fast and needed to slow down to READ the questions! Marcia H. I just passed my final EA exam. I took Part 3 first, then Part 1, then Part 2 Business Taxation last. They were all a challenge but especially the Business Taxation part. I want to thank you for helping me get thru all of them the first time. Your info was concise, understandable and relevant. Any question I submitted while studying was answered almost immediately. Thanks for offering a great product and service. I will continue to use FFA as my CPE resource. Larry H. I want to thank you and your team for providing the necessary resources that permitted me to pass all three parts of the SEE exam on the first try. It was an incredible feeling to see the screen pop up upon completion of the three exam parts offering up congratulations on passing those parts. I would not hesitate to recommend your course materials to anyone hoping to become an EA. I have already signed up for your continuing professional education course materials as well. Thanks again for the help and assistance. Very truly yours Peter L. Your materials are terrific: succinct, relevant, organized and easy to comprehend and memorize. The only thing I appreciate more than the knowledge you gave me is the time you saved me. Alexey B. Hello, I just thought that I would let you know that I passed the SEE2 exam on Saturday. That was my 3rd and final exam. I submitted the form 23 this morning. Thank your for your help. Your program is effective and cost efficient. I'll certainly recommend it to anyone seeking to become an Enrolled Agent. Norman B. I took the 3 parts one week apart and passed all 3. The FastForward study guide and the test bank made it possible for me to pass the tests the first time. Thank you for creating such a great program. Ralph H. A "BIG Thank you" for providing the guidance and technical help in getting me pass all the parts in EA Exam in my first attempt. Sridhar B. Just wanted to say thank you I just passed the 3rd section of the SEE... Your book, free questions, plus expanded version of the study questions made for an excellent review at a very reasonable price. Thanks again Carlton L. Just wanted to let you know that today I passed the SEE II and have now passed all 3 exams on the first try! Thank you for having such a great program as I don\'t think I could have done it without the access to the Practice Exams. I would be more than happy to write a testimonial if you need one. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Stephanie S. Just wanted to let you know I past the EA exam all three parts. You system is the best I have used so far. What is the fee to purchase the software for another staff person. Thanks again. Scott O. Your study guide and test program were great. The individual and the business study guides and tests were most helpful in my preparation for the exam. I passed all three exams on the first try, I submitted form 23 and have received my certificate as an EA. Thank you so very much for your help. After April 18th, I plan to contact your office for continued CPE study guides. Please keep me on your mailing list. Thanks again for your help. Opal I. Just wanted to say I passed SEE pt 1 on first try. The practice exam I purchased helped tremendously. Herman W. It's official you can add me to your stats. Passed all 3 parts of SEE exam on first try. Elaine C. I really value the awesome way your program was laid out. The study guide was concise and to the point. It was essential to follow the process of reading one chapter and focusing on the related chapter online test bank questions. Finally, the practice exams were the best tool in finalizing my study and learning process. I was able to retain so much that when it came time to take the real exams I felt confident and knowledgeable. I finished the three exam parts in record time and passed all on my first attempt. I have to hand it to you for developing such a thorough and useful study process that was not overly burdensome or monotonous. This clearly was the smart choice for me as i shopped around with some of your competitors and I will recommend it to anyone looking to study for the EA exams. The SEE three parts were no challenge at all with your great study guide, test bank and practice exams. I am very much appreciative of the time I spent not wasted! Sergio M. Study guide a very helpful tool. Part 2 was the hardest of the three tests, but thanks to Fast Forward study questions and study guide I was able to pass. Thanks Carolyn D. GREAT HELPFULL COURSE TO PASS MY EA EXAM IN FIRST ATTEMPT, I WILL ALSO RECMOND THIS TO MY OTHER FRIEND'S, THANKS. Liaqat
