| The good news is that throughout the country this past month, millions of
families claimed billions of dollars in Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) refunds.
The bad news is that a large percentage of these taxpayers paid outrageous fees
to have their taxes prepared and to receive their refund more quickly. However,
the growth of free tax preparation sites in recent years has given taxpayers
more options at tax time enabling them to save money. The Children's Defense Network's new report, Keeping
What They've Earned: Tax Credit for Working Families, details the
savings free tax preparation sites provide and outlines how government officials
and community leaders can save hard working families even more money during tax
season.
Check
out the report to see how much working families in your state could
save next year. |
