As of Sept. 1, 2024, membership in Georgia Association of Enrolled Agents is a separate enrollment from membership in NAEA. You are no longer required to be a member of NAEA to join Georgia Association of Enrolled Agents.
We still encourage you to join the National Association of Enrolled Agents, as NAEA is the only national association dedicated to serving your interests as an enrolled agent by advocating on your behalf with federal and state legislative bodies and educating the public on the advantages of hiring an enrolled agent. If you have earned the enrolled agent license, protect your investment through membership in GAEA and NAEA.
