At NATP, we believe it’s important to recognize good work and build each other up. That’s why we’re pleased to announce that nominations for the 2023 Tax Professional of the Year are now being accepted!

The Tax Professional of the Year award is a prestigious honor that recognizes outstanding tax professionals who have demonstrated excellence in their field.

NATP National Board of Directors are not eligible if nominated for work done while serving on the board.

The winner will receive a FREE trip to the Taxposium to receive the award. This also includes airfare, a four-night stay and full registration. A plaque inscribed with the winner’s name and date of award will also be given. The winner will be featured on our website and will be given recognition in the TAXPRO Journal.
