IRS states and I quote- Bar or CPA Review Course
"Review courses to prepare for the bar examination or
the certified public accountant (CPA) examination are
not qualifying work-related education. They are part of
a program of study that can qualify you for a new
profession."
Therefore such expenses do not qualify under-" Business
Deduction for Work-Related Education."
But what about claiming a deduction under - "Tuition and
Fees Deduction", is it disqualified as a deduction,
because becker/wiley do not qualify as "Eligible
educational institution." per IRC.
Why are the examination fee paid to accountancy Board
too, not deductible?

Well I just wanted to know why examination fee is
disallowed. But after studying the provisions, hmmmm,
CPA exam fee/ review course are pretty different in
character from tuition fee.
