Does Turbo Tax offer tax preparation training to become a certified tax preparer?

[MarciaB · Accepted solution]

No. TurboTax is a software system designed for people to prepare their own taxes.

I know this question is old. Previous answers have said no. This is NOT true! You CAN get training with Turbo Tax. But the training is to work for Turbo Tax. It’s a great work from home job. Yes. People do their own taxes with Turbo Tax, but remember that it also has agents available for those who need help filing their taxes. They have a free edition package, but they also have premium packages that includes help from a Turbo Tax agent.

HR Block has an excellent program that you can take for about $200 and then go to work for them if you chose.  They will pay for you to become certified if you continue to work for them.
