Unless you are planning to represent all your clients you prepare returns for, it does not sound reasonable that you would have every one of your clients sign a PoA for multiple years.

The answer you need is in the instructions for F.2848, which should remain valid for the period(s) and tax matter(s) specified until revoked.

I agree, I definitely would not sign an all-encompassing POA for multiple years for just preparing the tax returns.
