Free tax help available for low-income persons

Talk about it

West Central Minnesota Communities Action, Inc. is offering free tax preparation starting January 25.

If your income is below $49,000 for a family and $30,000 for individuals, you would qualify to have your taxes done at Community Action.

Many families qualify for the EIC, Working Family, K-12, Child Tax Credit and more.

All volunteers are trained through the IRS certification program and your tax return can be e-filed.

A clinic is open in Alexandria on Monday and Tuesday, and in Elbow Lake on Wednesday and Thursday.

Call to set up an appointment – (218) 685-4486 or 1-800-492-4805. (No self employment or small business returns will be prepared.)

If you have questions about filing a tax return, ask for Randi Bryan-Pajari, tax clinic coordinator.
