Which report should you choose?

Choose the Standard Desktop report when a CPA will file it, when several beneficiaries will rely on it, for gift tax returns, or whenever the value could be reviewed years from now. The Basic Desktop report suits simpler estates and family decisions where a concise, fully supported value is enough. If you are unsure, pick "Not sure" on the request form and we will recommend one.
