2024 Annual Federal Tax Refresher Course - Orlando
- Course Description
-
The 6 CPE available for completing this course is reported to Fast Forward Academy.
The Annual Federal Tax Refresher (AFTR) course is a 6-hour course accompanied by a 3-hour, 100 question exam. It was first introduced by the IRS in 2015 as part of the Annual Filing Season Program (AFSP), which is intended to recognize tax return preparers who voluntarily enhance their knowledge and improve their competency through continuing education.
The AFTR course is required for non-exempt tax return preparers who wish to participate in the Annual Filing Season Program. Along with the AFTR, non-exempt preparers must complete 2 hours of Ethics and 10 hours of Federal Tax Law courses to earn the AFSP Record of Completion. All AFSP requirements must be completed prior to midnight on December 31st of each year. By completing the AFTR course and earning the AFSP Record of Completion, non-exempt preparers gain the ability to represent clients whose returns they prepared during an examination by the IRS.
The 2024 AFTR course consists of 3 domains:
Domain 1 - New Tax Law/Recent Updates
Domain 2 - General Review
Domain 3 - Practices, Procedures, and Professional Responsibility

Note that the AFTR Test Parameters have been revised. Please consider each section of the test requirements carefully.
-
In addition to the 6-hour AFTR course, there will be a 3-hour maximum, timed continuous test. A clock displaying the remaining time will be utilized.
-
Each AFTR test must contain at least one question for each topic on the AFTR course outline. A test reconciliation is required to ensure all topics are tested, and there are test bank requirements for every third test attempt.
-
The test is limited to a maximum of 10 lookup questions. Lookup questions ask for a form number, schedule, line number, or statutory amount and add little educational value. Lookup questions require the student to do nothing more than look up the answer and can generally be answered without reading or understanding the course material.
