**JOB SUMMARY** Platinum Elite Consultants is building a nationwide roster of independent tax preparers for the 2027 filing season. You'll prepare individual and small\-business returns remotely, set your own fees, and keep 60% of what you charge — 70% once you pass 75 returns in a season. Most firms recruiting preparers charge between $299 and $2,999 up front. We charge nothing. Training is free, we help you obtain your PTIN, and you file under our established EFIN, so you don't need your own.
