Tax Preparer, Individual Income Tax (Form 1040), TY2025 (EA/CPA)

Enrolled Agents and CPAs who prepare individual returns build complete TY2025 Form 1040 returns by hand for a customer's AI training project, adding preparer notes so every figure can be traced. They also write complex tax scenarios, grade AI-generated returns by error severity, and record gaps or conflicts in IRS guidance. Seasoned preparers can work at Expert or Adjudicator level. The contract is remote within the US, and the listing states no pay or hours.

What you would do

• Prepare full Form 1040 returns from scratch under TY2025 rules, working worksheets, phase-outs and carryovers by hand
• Write preparer notes showing how each number on the return was reached so it can be checked and reproduced
• Build self-contained scenarios with self-employment, partnership and S-corp K-1s, investments and credits, including facts, dates, filing status and expected results
• Check AI-generated returns and calculations for accuracy and completeness, rating each error as critical, secondary or minor
• Document ambiguities, exceptions and conflicts in tax law or IRS guidance as structured written feedback

What the listing asks for

• Active EA or CPA who currently prepares individual 1040 returns
• 3+ tax seasons on complex returns (Schedule C, K-1s, investments, credits), not mainly W-2 returns
• Fluency in TY2025 rules and the ability to compute a full return by hand and explain each number in writing
• Expert level: 5+ tax seasons; Adjudicator level: 10+ years with review or sign-off responsibility
• Preferred: specialty in foreign tax credit, K-1s, Schedule C, Section 179, QBI, capital gains, or energy and education credits

Suits practicing EAs and CPAs who handle complex individual returns every season and can document their math clearly enough for someone else to reproduce it.
