Understanding the Difference

Tax Planning vs. Tax Preparation

Tax Preparation

Filing your return after the year ends. It looks backward at what already happened.

Tax Planning

Making strategic decisions throughout the year to minimize your future tax liability. It looks forward and takes action now.

The Bottom Line

Tax preparation is required. Tax planning is optional. But it can save you thousands. The best time to start planning is now.
