Financial Planning for Greenwich Residents With Complex Compensation and Two-State Taxes
Greenwich households may have income that touches New York, equity or deferred compensation, and a concentrated position in one employer. Our CFP® professionals, CPAs, and Enrolled Agents plan these pieces together, so your investments, your tax return, and your compensation decisions are coordinated, not siloed.

What Changes When Everything Works Together
Some advisory firms focus on one service and refer the rest to others. At United Financial Planning Group, your investment decisions, retirement timeline, and tax planning are considered together, because the same team handles all three.
CFP® professionals, CPAs, and Enrolled Agents work side by side, not across town. Hover over a service to see how it connects to your complete financial picture.
Planning Built Around a Greenwich Household
Compensation that spans several forms, a New York workplace, and a Connecticut home can each pull a plan in a different direction. This page describes how we approach that coordination. Outcomes depend on your individual circumstances.
Two-state tax coordination
Connecticut generally taxes its residents on income from all sources, and New York generally taxes nonresidents on income from New York sources. Estimating both returns together during the year can help your withholding and estimated payments line up with what each state may ask for at filing time.
Equity and deferred compensation timing
RSU vesting, option exercises, and bonus timing each create income in a specific tax year. We look at the sequence across years, not one event at a time, and we model the trade-offs before a decision is made.
Concentrated position planning
A large holding in one employer's stock can tie a meaningful part of your net worth to a single outcome. Diversifying can reduce that concentration, and it may also create a tax cost, so the timing and method are worth planning in advance.
Planning, investing, and tax under one team
Financial planning, investment management, tax planning, and tax preparation are handled by one coordinated team. We are a fee-only fiduciary, with no commissions.
A Useful Place to Start
A useful first question is how a Connecticut home and a New York workplace affect the same paycheck. The answer depends on where you perform your work, how your employer reports it, and what other income you have. Starting with a clear picture of both returns may make the equity and investment decisions easier to sequence. For the full explanation, see our page for Connecticut residents who work in New York.
