There is help out there for working families and those needing help filing their federal income taxes and obtaining the Earned Income Tax Credit.  The program is offered by the City of Phoenix, Arizona in cooperation with several partners and the IRS.

Last year, this special tax preparation assistance helped more than 5,000 families receive Earned Income Tax Credit payments of $7.39 million, and is available at more than a dozen sites in the city.

Those who earned less than $13,440 and married couples filing joint returns who earned less than $48,279 may be eligible for credits of $457 to $5,657. Additional credits might also be available such as child care expenses and education costs.

Call 602.263-8856 for more information about the location of the more than 13 sites and their schedules.
