How long will I have access to your courses?
You will always have full access to your CTEC tax course, even after you’ve completed it. This means you can retake your courses or go back for a refresher as many times as you’d like. You will also have access to your completion certificate at any time. 

After 1 year of enrolling, the course will no longer be good for CTEC credit, as we have to update our coures each year with new tax laws. So if you take more than 1 year to complete your course, you'll need to enroll in new updated course for CTEC credit.
I'm interested in becoming a California Tax Preparer, which course should I enroll in?

If you want to prepare taxes for a fee or compensation in the state of California, you are first required to complete a CTEC 60 Hour Qualifying Education tax course. You will also need to complete a series of other steps for CTEC, in order to become a Registered Tax Preparer. Click >HERE< for more information.

 
What is the deadline to renew with CTEC? When do I need to enroll in and complete the CTEC 20 Hour Renewal Course?

The deadline to complete your CTEC Registration Renewal is October 31st. You must have your CTEC 20 Hour Continuing Education tax course completed and CTEC fees paid by this date in order to complete your registration renewal. 

What is the deadline to complete the CTEC 60 Hour Qualifying Education course? How long will the course take?
There is NO deadline for the 60 hour QE Course. How long it take all depends on you. The course is self-paced.

When you are finished with the 60 hour qualifying education course, complete the remaining steps in the CTEC registration process (click >HERE< for more information). When these steps are done and you receive your certification, from CTEC, you are ready to begin!

You must complete 20 hours of continuing education and pay your renewal fees to CTEC every year in order to stay registered.

California Tax Courses will report their students course completion to CTEC and/or the IRS typically within 1-3 hours, depending on the day and time you complete your course. If your course is completed on the weekend, it will be reported between 9am-1pm Monday morning.

We also stay up late on October 31st and the January late deadline, till midnight to make sure everyone who completes their course last minute has their hours reported before the Midnight deadline. Be sure to pay your fees owed to CTEC in order to complete your registration!
