Financial Planners, Tax Help and Estate Planners

The following is a list of financial planners, accounting services, and estate planners who have successfully represented Foreign Service employees. Some were recommended by AFSA members, some have advertised in the Foreign Service Journal, and some are frequent speakers at the Foreign Service Institute or AFSA. This list is provided as a courtesy. AFSA does not endorse any of the individuals on this list nor does it accept responsibility for the consequences of acting on their advice.

A key question to ask your potential financial planner or advisor is whether s/he is a fiduciary. Guidance on that subject is available at https://smartasset.com/financial-advisor/what-is-fiduciary-financial-advisor.
