About
Course Overview This targeted 3-hour course delivers a fast-paced, practical breakdown of new tax laws, evolving IRS regulations, and court rulings affecting Tax Year 2026 returns. Because exempt preparers do not need the full 6-hour Annual Federal Tax Refresher (AFTR) course, this update focuses strictly on what has changed for individual and business taxpayers. Key Topics Covered 2026 Inflation Adjustments: New tax brackets, standard deductions, and phase-out thresholds. Legislative Shifts: Late-breaking federal tax changes and updated Form 1040 scheduling. Credits & Deductions: Critical tracking of evolving provisions for the CTC, EITC, and business write-offs. Modern Compliance: Updated IRS guidance on digital assets, PTIN renewals, and data security mandates. Learning Objectives By the end of this course, you will be able to apply 2026 tax law adjustments accurately, recognize new IRS reporting requirements, and seamlessly integrate compliance changes into the upcoming filing season. AFSP Note: Must be completed through an IRS-approved provider by December 31, 2026, alongside 10 hours of Federal Tax Law and 2 hours of Ethics to secure your IRS Record of Completion.
