In this episode you will learn: - The specific representation rights granted to Annual Filing Season Program (AFSP) participants. - That representation is strictly limited to the tax return and year the preparer actually signed. - Which IRS personnel an AFSP preparer can interact with, and which are strictly off-limits, like Appeals and Collection officers. - Common exam traps involving prior-year returns or attempts to represent clients in matters beyond the initial examination. - A mnemonic to remember the scope of limited practice: 'AFSP allows you to face the Agent, but not the Appeal.'
