Sample Questions

Question 1 Easy
What is the primary function of Form 8879, IRS e-file Signature Authorization?
Solution
Per Pub 1345 and the Form 8879 instructions, Form 8879 is used when a taxpayer authorizes an ERO to enter or generate the taxpayer's PIN, which then serves as the taxpayer's electronic signature on a Form 1040 series return transmitted via the Practitioner PIN method (or when the ERO generates the Self-Select PIN for the taxpayer).
Question 2 Medium
Which of the following is permitted in an Authorized IRS e-file Provider's advertising under the standards in Publication 3112?
Solution
Pub 3112 permits Authorized IRS e-file Providers to use the official IRS e-file logo provided through approved IRS channels, subject to the use rules in the publication. Use of the IRS seal, the eagle insignia, language implying IRS endorsement, or photographs of IRS facilities or personnel is prohibited because such use creates an impression of IRS sponsorship.
Question 3 Hard
Which of the following errors falls OUTSIDE the IRS's math-error authority under IRC §6213(b) and instead requires regular deficiency procedures (statutory notice of deficiency) before assessment?
Solution
IRC §6213(b)(1) and §6213(g)(2) define mathematical or clerical errors narrowly: arithmetic mistakes, transcription errors, omitted entries that are inconsistent with other entries, claims exceeding the statutory limits stated on the form, certain SSN/TIN mismatches, and similar mechanical defects. A factual dispute over whether an expense was actually incurred turns on substantive proof and credibility, which is not a math or clerical issue; the IRS must follow regular deficiency procedures under §6213(a).

About FreeFellow

Jeffrey Ting, founder of FreeFellow
Jeffrey Ting
FSA, CFA · Founder

FreeFellow was built by Jeffrey Ting, a credentialed actuary and CFA charterholder who passed thirteen of the hardest exams in finance on the first attempt, and paid four-figure prep fees for every one. The learning itself was always free. The price was a moat.

So he started writing his own questions, then lessons, then mock exams, until it grew into a full prep platform covering 40 finance credentials with more than 45,000 original practice questions. The name says exactly what it is: the question bank is free, and Fellow is what you become once you pass.

01
Cost shouldn't decide who gets in.

The exam is a fair gate. A four-figure prep course is not. FreeFellow takes the second gate down, so the exam is the only one left.

02
Free should mean free.

No trial clock, no email gate, no credit card. The question bank, worked solutions, lessons, and readiness score stay free, and they are enough to pass.

03
Built by someone who sat where you sit.

He paid for the big-name courses, found nothing he respected, and built the prep he wished had existed. Not a marketing team that has never sat an exam.
