  Enrolled Agent Change of Address Notification. It is extremely important that enrolled agents advise us when changing their address. Sending in a change of address on your tax form, or otherwise, does not necessarily get to our Office of Practitioner Enrollment (OPE) in Detroit, MI. No one should assume that OPE has any other address information than what enrolled agents, themselves, send to us. Consequently, if enrolled agents were to miss a renewal, etc., because they did not get mail from us, we do not consider as a mitigation that we did not have their latest address information. Go to " Applying for Renewal of Enrollment to Practice Before the IRS" for complete info regarding a change of address.

  Checking on the Status of an Enrolled Agent
  
  If you would like to find out the status of an Enrolled Agent, please send an email to our Detroit office at epp@irs.gov, or call our Detroit office at (313)234-1280. Another alternative is to send an email to the OPR mailbox at opr@irs.gov. In either case, please be sure to include the full name of the individual along with their address.
