How it works

A reliable trail from first job to annual report.

RothFuel turns everyday earning details into a structured, reviewable family record — without pretending recordkeeping is tax advice.

01

Record real work

Add the work type, dates, hours or flat amount, and notes that explain what was completed.

02

Document payment

Connect the payer, payment method, payment date, and available check or electronic references.

03

Review as a family

Children can submit entries; adults approve, reject for revision, or preserve a voided record.

04

Track the estimate

Approved gross earnings feed an estimated contribution limit for the selected tax year; recorded contributions reduce the estimated amount available.

05

Record contributions

Track the custodian, contribution date, designated tax year, amount, and confirmation details.

06

Reconcile annually

Print a clear report and compare it with tax documents, the filed return, and custodian records.

Review before it counts

A lifecycle designed for records that evolve.

New entries can stay in draft, move to adult review, be revised, and be approved. If an approved earning changes, it leaves approved calculations until it is reviewed again. Voiding preserves history.
