How it Works

One of the many benefits of partnering with XYTS is that we have a unique understanding of our members’ needs, standards and people-first approach to serving clients.

These insights led us to design our tax services to be the intentional, powerful and collaborative tools they can be when utilized as a pillar of comprehensive financial planning.

We also tailored our engagement and billing offerings to be flexible and customizable on a best-fit basis. You choose how much or little we engage with your clients as well as how they are billed for the services. From there, we’ll follow (or lead) every step of the way!

Getting Started With XYTS

To us, being a trusted partner means more than delivering on our commitments. It means providing the kind of thoughtful, individualized tax expertise you would if you could. So, we’ve limited our overall capacity and follow a strict scoping process to make sure we can serve each client with the focus and attention they deserve.
 
Due to these limits and processes, our services are available to XY Planning Network members only on a first-come, first-served basis.

Frequently Asked Questions

    Our tax team puts 100 years combined “taxpertise” at your fingertips – with a unique added value: we only work with financial advisors.  That means approaching our partnership and client services with specialized, relationship-based familiarity – that feels like, well, family.  
    Some other ways we are different:
    • We solidify your relationship with your clients by answering their questions confidently and offering solid, cohesive solutions.
    • We eliminate the communication gap that has historically existed between advisors and tax accountants.
    • If you choose our Premier or Enterprise Engagements, we execute information sharing agreements so that we can cross collaborate with you and your client with full transparency. 
    • We won’t open our own financial advisory practice to compete with you, ever!  

    It doesn’t cost XYPN members anything to partner with XYTS – it’s included in membership.  We charge for client services only and, as always, do not take kickbacks or commissions. 

    Client fees are determined by the engagement level and services required.  Advisors choose whether clients receive invoices from their firm or XYTS.  Please see the pricing options above or fill out our Interest Form to discuss best-fit options for you and your clients.

    Referral clients are direct-billed with tax preparation packages starting at $595.

    Yes!  We have team members with extensive experience working with financial planners and their clients, who have witnessed the impact comprehensive financial planning – and better informed advising – has on clients’ lives.

    Tax planning services are tailored to the needs of the client and advisor.  Our typical tax planning engagement starts with a phone consultation to collect required information.  One of our trained team members will then utilize technology and training to plan scenarios and outcomes for the individual.
