EITC

Free Income Tax Assistance Available

Do you earn $15,880 a year or less? Does your family earn $41,646 a year or less? You might be missing out on more than $4,000 in tax credits!

The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) may be available to you through your 2009 tax return. The EITC helps you get the dollars you deserve. It is a refund to qualified taxpayers - even if you don't owe any taxes on your income! You may qualify for refunds depending on the size of your family and yearly income.

Through the Cuyahoga EITC Coalition volunteers, low-income taxpayers will receive quality tax preparation, wealth building opportunities and other services in order to strengthen our neighborhoods' economies.
