Income Tax Assistance

  

       From watching television at this time of year you can already see the commercials for companies that work with families who owe more than $10,000 to the IRS. They must work on a contingency basis and they want to make it worth their time to work for you. I can bet that these companies take a good amount of the money obtained from their work on behalf of the person who is tax delinquent.
         In addition to the tax delinquency lawyers there are the predatory lenders and lawyers who will get your Social Security disability benefits. It seems that there are many people watching television who have gotten themselves into financial trouble and need help. That is why it is important to work with credible organizations in trying to resolve your financial difficulties. 

     Today I want to highlight one of those local organizations for help with tax preparation. makingCHANGE is hosting the Howard County Income Tax Assistance Program throughout the 2013 tax season. The service is free and open to tax payers who earn below $50,000. They can file electronically and can have the refund directly deposited into your bank account. Here is their information:
