Exam guide
Why this is the next free-prep market after PMP.
Free-tool wedge
Start with Part 1 Individuals because it has broad consumer-tax concepts, visible IRS sample topics, and clear study needs around credits, deductions, income, forms, and filing decisions.
Content control
Every published question should carry a tax-year label, topic tag, explanation, and source-review note. This is practice content, not tax advice.

FAQ
EA SEE Part 1 practice notes.
Are these official IRS questions?
No. These are original practice questions. IRS sample questions are used only as a topic and format reference.
Does this replace paid EA prep?
No. The MVP is a free diagnostic and study tool. Candidates should still verify rules against IRS publications, forms, instructions, and current exam bulletins.
Why does the page say 2025 tax law?
The IRS says the current SEE cycle references law amended through December 31, 2025 unless otherwise stated. This page labels that assumption clearly.
