🎙️ FoF: Your Tax Return Was Accepted… Not Verified
About this episode
In this episode of Facts Over Feelings, Kevin Thompson, Enrolled Agent, breaks down the real differences between tax preparers—CPAs, Enrolled Agents, and PTIN holders—and why it matters who’s handling your return.
He draws a clear line between tax preparation and tax planning, calling out the risk of cheap services that offer no real strategy. Kevin shares what he’s seeing firsthand—basis errors, unsubstantiated credits, and poorly structured “businesses” that can trigger IRS issues.
The message is simple: ask better questions, understand who you’re working with, and make sure your preparer can stand with you if something goes wrong.
Because when it comes to taxes, accuracy matters more than convenience.
