What is a Certified Tax Planner?


The tax training required to become a Certified Tax Planner(CTP) extends beyond what a typical Tax Preparer, Certified Public Accountant, or Enrolled Agent receives in order to get their credentials. Certified Tax Planners are educated by The American Institute of Certified Tax Planners (AICTP) in advanced tax planning strategies that are proactive rather than reactive. Their training is not just about compliance but is focused around uncovering tax deductions and loopholes that most tax professionals don't know how to find. Their special skill set is especially effective in reducing taxes for successful small business owners, entrepreneurs, and high net worth individuals.
