2009 ERO Working Together Workshop
The Internal Revenue Service and the Wisconsin Department of Revenue invite you to attend our annual ERO Working Together Workshop. This FREE and informative workshop will cover these topics:
- Federal and State Tax Law Updates
- State Electronic Filing Updates
- EIC Preparer Due Diligence
- Overview of IRC 7216 - Disclosure or Use of Information by Preparers of Returns
Department of Revenue tax administrators will attend this workshop to address Department initiatives and get your feedback. They will not have separate tax practitioner meetings in 2009.
We have added some new locations this year (Chippewa Falls and Stevens Point) and will offer the workshop twice in Madison and Milwaukee. You may either attend a session in-person or view the October 21 session on-line from the comfort of your office or home. The on-line session can also be viewed at a later date through the Department of Revenue website. See the chart below for workshop dates and locations and for on-line registration.
The IRS will be offering three continuing professional education credits to enrolled agents who attend a session in person. We are not able to offer CPE credits for the on-line session because we cannot verify attendance.
Check the chart below for the starting and ending times for each specific session. There will be a break for lunch. Refreshments are not provided so feel free to bring something to drink.
The workshop will also include a panel discussion. This is an opportunity to exchange ideas with other practitioners and share best practices. If you have suggestions for topics to discuss or if you would like to be part of the discussion panel, please contact Kerstin Lanser or Kathy Mostowik using the e-mail address or telephone number given below.
To attend in-person or to view on-line, you must register. Registration will be limited based on the number of individuals we can comfortably accommodate at the facility. Please register for the session of your choice by completing the form below. All items are required. Each person attending should register separately.
