The training covers all four refundable credits: Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), Child Tax Credit / Additional Child Tax Credit / Credit for Other Dependents (CTC/ACTC/ODC), American Opportunity Tax Credit (AOTC), and Head of Household (HOH) filing status.
For tax year 2024 (filed in 2025), the penalty under IRC §6695(g) is over $600 per credit failure on a single return. If a return claims EITC, CTC, and HOH and fails due diligence, the penalty exceeds $1,800 for that return alone.
After purchase, you will have access to the management dashboard in Atlas Academy where you can enter employee emails to send invitation links. Each employee creates their own login, completes the modules, and generates a verifiable certificate with their name.
Yes. Additional staff seats can be added directly from your Atlas Academy dashboard for $49 per seat at any time.
