Description

Extracted out from #107 .

The 'About you' paper form (see issue above) includes a section about financial advisors.

Image

We weren't sure that including these details in the 'about you' form itself made sense, so omitted it for now and created this issue to think through some open questions:

  • How is this information used? Is there a use case for being able to 'look up' advisors?
  • Is there a separate database of known advisors? Would it helpful to build up a list of advisors as we collect this info?
  • Would it be helpful show users a list of known advisors to choose from? Would doing so bring up any privacy issues?
  • While it probably made sense in a paper-centric flow to capture both advisor and narrative details at the same time, is that still the best flow on the app?
  • Where might advisor info fit in a holistic onboarding flow?

Research direction

Start by reviewing issue #107 and the attached “About you” paper form, then use the open questions here to understand the intended advisor-information flow. Done means the use case, data model or lookup needs, privacy considerations, and onboarding placement have been decided clearly enough to define implementation work.
