Why It Matters
ROBS is fully sanctioned by the IRS but requires active monitoring and compliance. Compliance errors trigger a 15% excise tax on prohibited transactions under IRC 4975, with an additional 100% tax if uncorrected. Professional administration isn’t optional — it’s the product.Check Your Eligibility
