Community Action Partnership Offering Free Tax Preparation Services

Date:

Families with household incomes of less than $49,000 are invited to take advantage of free tax preparation services being provided by Community Action Partnership of Riverside County. IRS Certified tax preparers will prepare and file tax returns for low-income tax payers, taking advantage of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). EITC is a refundable federal tax credit for working families. This credit helps reduce the tax burden on low and moderate-income families.

Eleven Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) sites throughout Riverside County will provide weekend and evening hours and will have bilingual volunteers to assist taxpayers. Families who have their returns E-filed can receive their direct deposit refunds within 7-10 days. Free tax preparation will be available through April 14, 2012. Locations in Blythe and Lake Elsinore will be open by appointment only.

Based on earnings and family situation, taxpayers can receive up to $5,751 in Earned Income Tax Credit refunds. Families may also qualify for other tax credits, including the Child Tax Credit, which can reduce a family’s tax liability by up to $1,000 per child. Also, refunds may be split and direct deposited into up to three different bank accounts. General financial services and other resource information are also available at the sites.
