The IRS charges a separate user fee to recover the costs it incurs related to enrollment and renewal of enrollment of enrolled Agents (EAs) and enrolled retirement plan agents. That fee is currently set at $67 per initial application and renewal.

The IRS has recently adopted final regulations which increase both the enrollment and renewal user fees to $140. This applies to both individuals who are enrolled agents or enrolled retirement plan agents, and those who apply to become enrolled agents or enrolled retirement plan agents.
