Professional Review Status

Keep the public boundary clear until a qualified tax professional completes review.

2 items

Current status

The calculator is published as an educational tool. Professional tax review is still pending and must remain visible in health and review evidence.

Evidence: Tax professional review pending

Review role

The reviewer should check source data, assumptions, model limits, and user-facing language. The reviewer should not be asked to approve personalized advice copy.

Evidence: CPA, EA, or qualified tax professional

Modeled Calculation Scope

Identify what the deterministic calculator currently models before asking for professional review.

4 items

Federal bracket estimate

The calculator models federal ordinary income tax from user-provided taxable income, filing status, tax year, and conversion inputs.

Evidence: src/core/calculator/federal-tax.ts

Pro-rata basis estimate

After-tax IRA basis and traditional IRA balance are used for simplified pro-rata taxable conversion modeling.

Evidence: src/core/calculator/roth-conversion.ts

State tax assumption

State tax is modeled from the user-entered marginal rate, not a full state law engine.

Evidence: User-provided marginal state tax rate

Payment method comparison

Outside-funds and IRA-withholding scenarios are compared as educational modeled scenarios, not recommendations.

Evidence: src/features/tax-payment-comparison

Bounded Preview And Review Limits

Separate available bounded previews from complete tax calculations and final agency or tax-form determinations.

4 items

IRMAA

The calculator can show bounded 2026 Part B and Part D IRMAA proxy previews from the calculator income proxy. SSA lookback-year MAGI, life-changing event appeals, billing determinations, and plan-specific Part D premiums remain outside the calculator.

Evidence: Bounded proxy preview plus review required

ACA premium tax credits

The calculator can show an APTC at-stake preview from user-entered advance premium tax credit and coverage months. It does not calculate final Marketplace eligibility, benchmark plan premiums, repayment caps, poverty-line percentages, or Form 8962 reconciliation.

Evidence: APTC at-stake preview plus review required

Social Security, NIIT, AMT, and RMD

The calculator can show bounded Social Security taxable-benefit, NIIT, AMT exposure, and Uniform Lifetime RMD previews when the required user inputs are present. Final Publication 915 worksheets, Form 8960, Form 6251, actual RMD obligations, credits, deductions, and agency determinations remain outside the calculator.

Evidence: Bounded preview plus review required

State-specific special rules

State pages and selected-state worksheets explain assumptions, readiness fields, and optional reviewed state estimates, but the calculator does not model every state exclusion, credit, surcharge, local rule, residency rule, or multi-state filing outcome.

Evidence: Additional review required

Source Data and Freshness

Give the reviewer the tax-year evidence needed to verify source alignment.

3 items

Tax year

The current public calculator and metadata are centered on 2026 tax-year assumptions.

Evidence: 2026

Tax data freshness page

Annual source update workflow records IRS-source review, update windows, validation, release notes, sitemap updates, and rollback boundaries.

Evidence: /tax-data-update

Production Evidence Package

Attach machine-readable proof that the live site remains crawlable, structured, and boundary-safe.

GitHub Actions retains smoke, GSC, DNS, security headers, health, crawl discovery, internal links, HTML quality, performance, structured data, blog discovery, professional UI, and review-packet evidence.

Evidence: production-seo-evidence

Health endpoint

The public health payload keeps status, tax year, content counts, feature counts, and pending professional-review status available for operations review.

Evidence: /api/health

Review packet evidence

The evidence command verifies this page, sitemap inclusion, llms.txt discovery, and retained pending-review language.

Evidence: professional-review-packet-evidence-result.json

Reviewer Handoff

Turn the website state into a concrete review packet rather than a loose set of links.

3 items

A user or reviewer can export a scenario with inputs, modeled outputs, assumptions, review warnings, and source links.

Evidence: Copy CPA packet / print-ready report

The checklist lists documents, basis records, account balances, payment method questions, model limits, and recordkeeping items.
