Major underwithholding issues & RSU tax planning unpredictability

RSUs can lead to significant surprise tax bills if you’re not prepared. Many people don’t realize their employer may not withhold enough taxes, leaving them owing more than expected. We’ll help you figure out the best time to sell your shares, plan for taxes, and avoid those unpleasant surprises. It’s all about making your RSUs work for you, not against you.

Non qualified stock options

Facing uncertainty with how to handle your NSOs?

NSOs can feel like a puzzle, especially when it comes to deciding when to exercise or sell. The timing matters because it impacts your taxes and how much money you actually take home. We’ll simplify the process, create a plan that works for your goals, and help you avoid expensive mistakes.

Incentive stock options

ISOs often bring hidden costs & tax implications

Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) offer great benefits but also bring complex tax implications, including potential Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) exposure. If handled incorrectly, ISOs can result in unexpected costs and missed opportunities. We’ll analyze your situation and guide you through exercise and holding strategies to balance tax efficiency with financial growth.
