Dear John,

I know this isn’t anyone’s favorite time of year: tax season.  

 

BUT this year can be different. Californians can take advantage of the IRS’ new online-filing system. This is a special IRS pilot program, so you don’t have to use a third-party system to file.  

My office has gathered the following resources to make your tax filing experience as smooth as possible: 

Taxpayer Advocate Service: This is an independent service within the IRS that helps ensure taxpayers are treated fairly. 

 

Find the Status of Your Refund: Refunds are a crucial source of relief for many every year. Find out the status of yours. 

 

File for free: You may be able to get tax preparation assistance for free or at low cost. See if you qualify. 

 

Community Action Partnership of Riverside County: This organization provides aid and assistance with everything from bill pay (water, energy, utilities, etc), conflict resolution, and tax form assistance 

 

Tax Counseling for the Elderly via IRS: Locator for TCE and VITA tax assistance programs.   

 

Family Service Association: This program provides various assistance to people in need, with tax prep assistance part of their elderly services.  

 

As always, stay in touch with my office with issues affecting your families. 

Sincerely,

Rep. Mark Takano signature
