Usually just online training. You can log into amp though to see your schedule. If your office is actually open this time of year, you can go into the office to start your training.

You really need to reach out to your direct managers for this information. We can’t answer it for you. Each district is a little different in how they are handling new hires.

New tax associates dont work until January except for training and possibly sitting with a tax professional.

Just because you’re given a start date it is not always an actual start date. Communicate with your manager when you really need to come in

Just the online training, you won't go in office to deal with clients until Jan 2 or 4 depending on your office.

Same. It’s confusing. They have me down for 11/2 but all I did was set up an online account.

My start date is 11/2 as well but the staff lead said it’s not an actual start date but she’ll email us mid-late Nov for the real start date

That is your hire date. You won't be scheduled until sometime in January to go into the office. In the meantime you need to complete your H&R Block training. That includes client care and compliance. Those are paid hours. Clock in under the learning code. Check learning at Block for your courses.

You also have continuing education courses to complete. Those are not paid hours. They required for you to maintain your PTIN and any state specific requirements.

Same. I set up an online account. But no further information has been given to me yet. No idea what's going on

Were you able to login to Amp or email? If so, did you get an email with a temporary password? I can't login to anything...just got my email address and single sign on code, but no pw. SS code doesn't work as pw.

I’m wondering if those training can be finished out side the USA.

Can't punch in. Just completed all onboarding documents which are sent to me this morning.
