Helping Diligent Advisors Ensure They're On The Right Planning Path

Charitable Deduction Clarification Triggers Updates


Updated Resources

As part of fpPathfinder’s ongoing commitment to our members, we systematically review our ever-increasing roster of checklists, flowcharts, and summary guides. As a result, they are subject to updates.

Charitable Deduction Clarification

Members will find three updated checklists that reflect the charitable deduction clarification for taxpayers claiming the standard deduction for 2021. The deduction is up to $300 for Single filers and $600 for Married Filing Jointly but will not reduce AGI. The change is one that many financial advisors and tax planners may have missed when it was signed into law late last year. You can read more about this on ThinkAdvisor. 

In addition to the clarification, you will discover bonus planning points and other revisions that improve the checklists:

“I love your resources, you guys & gals have helped us take our practice to the next level!”
— Trevor, an advisor in California
“Checklists don't make the planner smarter or more skilled, but do help to ensure that the planner maximizes the knowledge and skill he/she already has.”
— Michael Kitces, Publisher and Editor-In-Chief at Kitces.com
“The resources available are beneficial internally and for clients. The checklists help advisors think outside the box of their knowledge and experience covering a multitude of planning areas. The flowcharts are well laid out visuals for the clients with possible scenarios identified and clear paths to take. fpPathfinders does a nice job updating the resources regularly and communicating to their customer base as well.”
— An advisor in Minnesota
“What you guys have created is pretty badass! I’ve used your material for both client meetings and prospective clients.”
— An advisor in California
“With working from home most of 2020, we wanted to still catch some face time with our clients. We used the checklists and flowcharts to conduct webinars covering various topics. In fact, having the charts readily available, we were able to do many of these on a weekly basis, knowing the material was pretty much already established. We had such great feedback that we are continuing the webinars into 2021. We have many that actually look forward to our meeting times, and found being able to have the flowchart or checklist available to work on their own later was an added bonus.”
— An advisor in Texas
“Our firm had been looking for something like this for so many years. A standardized checklist or flowchart of important issues to consider, and a way to integrate the responses into our system. When we stumbled across your service, I couldn't have signed up any quicker. We now use the checklists to conduct monthly webinars about the all of the important topics”
— An advisor in Texas
“Our team has really liked the charts and were particularly pleased with the traditional IRA vs. 401k for a business and the QBI chart.”
— Scott, an advisor in Oregon
