How much do part time tax planning jobs pay per year?

As of Jun 14, 2026, the average yearly pay for part time tax planning in the United States is $58,389.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $36,000.00 and $69,000.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

Is a tax planner a CPA?

A tax planner is a professional who helps individuals and businesses develop strategies to minimize tax liabilities, but they are not necessarily CPAs. While some tax planners are Certified Public Accountants (CPAs), others may be enrolled agents, financial advisors, or tax preparers without CPA credentials. Certification requirements vary depending on the role and jurisdiction.

What is the difference between Part Time Tax Planning vs Part Time Tax Preparation?

AspectPart Time Tax PlanningPart Time Tax Preparation
CertificationsEnrolled Agent, CPA, or Tax Planning CertificationEnrolled Agent, CPA, or Tax Preparer Certification
Work EnvironmentAdvisory, strategic meetings, client consultationsData entry, document review, filing
Employer & Industry UsageFinancial firms, accounting firms, independent consultantsTax firms, accounting offices, freelance tax preparers

Part Time Tax Planning involves advising clients on tax strategies and optimizing financial plans, requiring strategic thinking and certifications like CPA or EA. In contrast, Part Time Tax Preparation focuses on preparing and filing tax returns, often involving data entry and document review. Both roles are common in accounting and tax firms but differ in scope and responsibilities.

Can I be a part-time tax preparer?

Part-time tax preparers typically work during the tax season and may be employed by accounting firms, tax preparation companies, or operate independently. They often need basic tax knowledge, relevant software skills, and sometimes a preparer tax identification number (PTIN) from the IRS. Scheduling flexibility is common, making it suitable for those seeking part-time work or supplemental income.

What does a tax planner do?

A tax planner helps individuals or businesses develop strategies to minimize tax liabilities and ensure compliance with tax laws. They analyze financial situations, recommend tax-efficient investments, and often use tools like tax software to prepare and review returns. Certification such as CPA or EA can enhance their expertise.

How much does a tax preparer make per return?

A tax preparer typically earns between $150 and $450 per return, depending on the complexity of the return and the preparer's experience. Some may charge a flat fee or hourly rate, especially if they handle more complex filings or offer additional services.
