EA Exam Eligibility Criteria in India – To earn EA Credentials

Candidates do not need to worry about their degree or experience to appear for this certification.

A graduate with a basic understanding of accounting can apply, but he or she must demonstrate competency in the tax-related topics. 

A candidate must pass all three parts of the Special Enrollment Examination (Individuals, Businesses and Representation, Practices, and Procedures), which covers a large portion of the Internal Revenue Code. 

Candidates must have worked for the IRS for five years in a position that routinely applies and interprets the Internal Revenue Code and regulations pertaining to income, inheritance, gift, employment, or excise taxes. 

NOTE :There isn't a clear pattern to be found. The exam cannot be taken in any particular order. Any section can be chosen as the first for the candidate. To earn the EA certification, you only need to pass all three sections. 

EA Exam Pattern & Passing Criteria

There are 3 parts of EA exam, officially it is called as SEE :

1. ​Individuals 

2. Businesses 

3. Representation, Practices, and Procedures 

 

There are 100 MCQ’s which are divided into 85 MCQ’S and 15 Experimental Questions in each parts. 

IRS exam : It includes only 85 MCQ’s with 3.5 Hours of duration. 

Because your Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN) must be renewed every year, you should plan a testing session for your 1st exam portion within one year of registering for the EA exam by obtaining a PTIN. The components of the EA test, on the other hand, can be taken in any sequence.

Once you pass an EA test section, you will get credit for that portion for 2 years from the day you passed the exam.  

You should plan for passing all three stages within 2 years. That way, you won't lose credit for any portions you missed and won't have to retake them. 

The IRS has set the scaled passing score at 105. Failing candidates are provided a scaled score value so that they may see how close they are to being successful. Candidates that receive a scaled score of 104 are very close to passing.

NOTE :Scaled scores are determined by calculating the number of questions answered correctly and converting it to a scale that ranges from 40 to 130.
