Questions

Before you register.

Is the training really free?

Yes. The 8 sessions cost nothing. You pay only for the CG6 E-File plan you choose for the season, at the same price as on our pricing page.

Do I need experience?

No. Week 1 starts with how the U.S. tax system works. If you already prepare returns, weeks 3 and 4 focus on the software and on running your business.

Do I need a PTIN or an EFIN to attend?

No. You need a PTIN before you prepare any federal return for pay, and an EFIN to e-file as your own office. Week 4 shows you how to apply for both.

Is the certificate an IRS credential?

No. It shows you completed the CG6 E-File Academy training. It is not an IRS credential and it is not IRS continuing education credit.

What do I need on class days?

A computer with internet and Zoom. A second screen helps during the software sessions in week 3.

What if I cannot make a session?

Plan to attend all 8. If something comes up, tell us before the session by email at FILLAPPOFFICE@CG6LLC.COM.
