Don't Confuse Tax Planning with Tax Advice

TAX ADVICE is given by a federally authorized tax practitioner, meaning an individual authorized under federal law to practice before the IRS. This can include professionals such as CPA's, attorneys, enrolled agents, enrolled actuaries, and other types of professionals.

TAX ADVICE typically involves the recommendation of a specific strategy by an individual with some tax-specific designation and is generally much more case-based than tax planning. For example, tax advice would be applicable for complex objectives like aquiring a business or immigrating permanently.

TAX PLANNING, which is allowed for Advisors, can involve giving general information on settled tax laws and how that can be applicable to the client, as well as projecting the impact of potential tax strategies.

TAX PLANNING DOES NOT EQUAL TAX ADVICE
