Tax Preparation
Earn It! Keep It! $ave It!
Jewish Family Services of Silicon Valley offers free tax preparation and electronic filing assistance for low to moderate-income taxpayers during the upcoming tax season. Our trained tax preparers help qualified people receive Earned Income Tax Credits (EITC).
The EITC is a federal tax benefit for working people that can help them to get up to $4,500 in tax refunds. This money can make a real difference in peoples' lives.
Kudos to our JFS VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance) Staff and Volunteers! In 2013, JFS helped 185 households receive $184,995 in refunds. That averages out to each household receiving a refund of about $1,000 each!
