Non-Compliant Tax Preparer Complaint Form

To begin the process, be sure you have verified that the tax preparer in question is registered with CTEC. Just as a reminder, an individual preparing taxes for a fee may also be a CPA (www.dca.ca.gov/cba), an Enrolled Agent (www.irs.gov), or an attorney (www.calbar.ca.gov). You may wish to check the websites indicated to be sure the individual in question is not a CPA, EA or attorney, and, therefore, exempt from registering with CTEC. If you have verified that information, please select "Yes" and click "Continue". If you have not verified that information, click here.

Have you verified to see if the tax preparer is already registered with CTEC?
