  • Be wary of QIs who cut corners. This might put you in a difficult situation where you have to deal with IRS
  • Questions to ask to qualify for a QI
  • Figure out how sophisticated the QI is. You want someone knowledgeable and could help you make decisions
  • Make sure they have the right insurance and dedicated advisor
