Sorry Tax preparers but you are part of "the Game" and now you got to pony up to stay in it.
Besides, if the gub'ment can force you to buy something from a third party they can make you pay a fee and get certified to be a tax preparer.

Other than our ex Sec of Treasury Geithner (aka turbo tax Timmy) and a few members of congress most people can just use the tax return software correctly.
Maybe they are concerned with the billions given to illegals that claim children from Mexico for the child credit, many of them using the same address.(not)
“According to an NBC affiliate in Indianapolis, illegal aliens are getting billions of U.S. tax dollars in refundable tax credits for nieces, nephews, and other relatives back in Mexico, because the IRS has allowed illegal aliens to claim such credits on their tax returns, for people they list as “dependents.” (Nearly three quarters of tax returns filed by illegal aliens received such tax credits). For example, an illegal alien with $14,000 in income not only paid no taxes, but received a refund of $10,000. In another case, illegal aliens used a phony address to claim 20 relatives as dependents and get thousands in refunds.”
