NAEA’s National Tax Practice Institute™ [NTPI Fellow®]

Have you noticed if your tax professional uses the designation “NTPI Fellow®”?  This designation is proof of significant expertise in the representation of taxpayers before the IRS.  Becoming an NTPI Fellow® is not easy and to fully appreciate what it says about your tax professional, here is a rundown of the prerequisites and requirements to achieve this distinction.

Before one can even enroll in the National Tax Practice Institute [NTPI], your tax professional must be an Enrolled Agent, CPA or Attorney.  These are the only three professional groups that have full rights of representation before IRS.  That means that not only can they speak directly to the IRS regarding your taxes without you being present, but they can also represent you in an IRS audit, collection or appeal.

NTPI Fellow® have completed a rigorous, three-level program of study that covers all aspects of representing clients before the IRS.  They have learned to guide their clients through the repeatedly challenging maze of IRS rules, internal regulations and agency structure.  Once enrolled in NTPI, attendees study a broad range of applicable topics, including:

  • Communicating with the IRS
  • Non-Filers
  • Examination and Audit [Introduction and advanced]
  • Case Resolutions [Installment Agreement, Offer in Compromise, Currently not Collectible]
  • Appeals [Introduction, exam appeals, collection appeals and advanced appeals]
  • Collections [ACS and Revenue Officer]
  • Liens and Levies
  • Trust Fund Recovery [TFRP, 6672]
  • Freedom of Information Act [FOIA]
  • Educating Clients
  • Bankruptcy
  • Innocent Spouse

Now that you are aware of what the designation represents, you will notice only the nation’s top tax practitioners have earned it.

"After a failing company, fixing all of my tax problems was very daunting. I was dealing with multiple States, a City and the IRS. Sequoia has been there every step of the way. Anytime something pops up out of the blue all I have to do is call them and they handle it. Tax issues and dealing with the government can be very stressful. They have taken some of that stress away. Every time I get on the phone with April ******* I fell better, and I know Sequoia is doing everything they can to help. I would definitely recommend calling them for their services." -W.L.

“Don’t let what happened to me happen to you! Unfortunately I was one of the “typical” business owners that didn’t think that my tax issues would catch up to me. Sequoia Tax Relief had reached out to me multiple times to bring me on board so that they could protect my business, my bank accounts and my assets but I never took their calls. Then the inevitable happened, a Revenue Officer showed up at my place of business and began intimidating me. Right after this nightmare I finally signed up with Sequoia Tax Relief and I couldn’t be more impressed with how they were able to address my specific case. Don’t be just another victim to the IRS. Let the entire Sequoia Tax Relief team get you the results you deserve.” -S.O.

"The Sequoia Tax Relief team is amazing. They have been extremely helpful in navigating this stressful and difficult situation. They have been diligent and helpful in offering advice on how to encourage the IRS to approve an affordable monthly payment. I am confident in the selection we made to go with the Sequoia Team as they operate with skill, excellence and honesty; these are three priceless attributes of a company I am grateful to have on our side. I look forward to our continued relationship as we see this through to resolution. Thank you Sequoia for making this process as smooth as possible!" -M.B. 

"I have to say that I am overly impressed with the quality and efficiency of Sequoia Tax Relief. I don't normally post online but I feel that I have to let everyone that Sequoia is truly a savior. Our case was several years old. Brande J. took over our account and got us a resolution in just a week, after over a year of trying to get this resolved. We had IRS issues that appeared and even in our panic, Brande was able to keep us calm and was able to fix our situation with no penalties of late fees. I am beyond ecstatic with the service and the speed at which she responds to my panic emails. If you have any issues at all with the IRS or FTB, I STRONGLY recommend using Sequoia. IF you're lucky, ask for Brande. She will make sure you are well taken care of." -B.M.
