“What truly made the biggest difference for me, though, was the EA Boot Camp. It gave me the structure, guidance, and confidence I needed to pass my Enrolled Agent exams. The material was presented in a way that made complex topics understandable, and I walked into my exams feeling prepared instead of overwhelmed. If you’re working toward becoming an EA or just want to expand your tax knowledge, Brass Tax is an investment that is ABSOLUTELY worth it. Thank you for providing such outstanding education and support!”

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions that come up most.

Do I have to take all three parts at once?

No. The bundle is a discount, not a requirement. You can buy parts one at a time — you’ll just pay $412 more across the three of them.

What does the registration fee include?

The textbook, the custom practice question packet, the live instruction (or on-demand), and instructor access for questions. It does not include the IRS exam proctor fee.

What if I have to cancel?

Refunds are issued up to two weeks before your class, minus a small fee for the textbook. Inside the two-week window, switch to on-demand at no extra cost.

Is the on-demand version the same content?

Yes — same instructors, same material, same practice packet. You also keep instructor access to email questions during your study window.

What time to live sessions start?

Live classes run from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM.

When will textbooks ship?

Textbooks will be shipped as soon as they are available, so you can begin studying before classes begin!
