The Annual Filing Season Program (AFSP) allows you to be included on the IRS public database of return preparers and differentiates you from other preparers.
The Gleim online self study AFSP bundle is specifically crafted for those who wish to obtain an IRS AFSP–Record of Completion. The Annual Filing Season Program includes the Gleim Annual Federal Tax Refresher Course (6 hours), a 2-hour Tax Ethics CE course, and 10 hours of Tax Law CE courses.
This Bundle includes multiple online courses, providing you with the credit required to comply with the IRS requirements for the 2025 Filing Season. You may access these courses from any computer or mobile device that has an Internet connection. Courses must be completed by December 31, 2024 to count toward your 2025 Filing Season requirement. You can retake qualified assessments as many times as necessary to pass. CE credits are reported weekly to the IRS.
AFSP-Record of Completion holders have limited representation rights, allowing them to represent clients before revenue agents, customer service representatives, and similar IRS employees (including the Taxpayer Advocate Service).
*This course can also be used as a general 1040 Refresher course for any tax preparer. It cannot, however, be used as CE for EAs, and it may not be accepted for CPE by state boards of accountancy.
