Beginning today, January 21, the IRS is sending expiration notices to PTIN holders who have not yet renewed their PTIN for 2015. Read a copy here. Anyone receiving a notice can still renew their PTIN online at any time, but their status has been changed to “expired” until they do so.
To date, approximately 635,000 tax return preparers have valid PTINs for tax year 2015.
Also, IRS recently sent notices to a handful of PTIN holders identified to have invalid addresses. We are asking them to log into their account, review and update the info. Read the notice here.
