When to keep this offering on your shortlist

Your financial advisor follows the RTS podcast and wants help evaluating a client tax return. Establish who contracts for the review, who may rely on it and who handles client advice, implementation and filing.

Membership support for an advisor is not automatically a direct engagement with the advisor’s client. The reviewed site is not education only: its tiers include CPA return-review support. Confirm current taxpayer-service availability separately.

A provider’s public education may help you learn concepts while a separate professional engagement addresses your records. Keep a current relationship when its scope and assigned team meet the requirements; no universal winner is assigned here.

Published price evidence and quote scope

The reviewed RTS homepage lists Essentials at $297/month and Premiere at $597/month. These are advisor membership prices, not universal private taxpayer planning or tax-preparation quotes. Confirm current terms and scope.

Questions for the actual engagement

  • Is the buyer an advisor or a taxpayer?
  • What return reviews and office-hour access are included?
  • Who contracts for personal advice and return preparation?
  • Who implements recommendations and what renewals apply?

Give each bidder the same entity list, prior returns, current books, property details and deadline. Request a complete fee and written assignment for advice, implementation and filing. Share sensitive records only through the chosen provider’s secure intake process.
