FAQ
Tax Planning Services in San Francisco
How is tax planning different from tax prep?
Tax prep records what already happened. Tax planning shapes what happens — moving income, timing deductions, structuring entities, and modeling decisions before year-end so the return reflects an optimized outcome.
When is tax planning worth it?
Anytime your income exceeds ~$150K, you own a business or real estate, or you have equity compensation. Most clients save 5–10x the planning fee in the first year.
