With the tax deadline extended to July 15, households throughout
the Sacramento region are still eligible for free virtual help
preparing taxes and claiming credits this year, saving an average
of $200 in preparer fees and earning up to $6,500 in credits.
United Way California Capital Region’s Free Tax Prep program is
partnering with GetYourRefund.org to provide virtual assistance.
More households are eligible to participate through the
partnership – those earning $66,000 or less in 2019. Qualified
households can upload documents online and a United Way
IRS-certified volunteer will call them to help claim the maximum
tax credits for which they are eligible before submission,
including the federal and state Earned Income Tax Credits (EITC
and CalEITC).

One Project, a 20-year promise to significantly increase the

ready for success in college and beyond. United Way believes
ending poverty starts in school and is working to ensure kids
meet important milestones and their families receive support and
resources.
