IRC Free Tax Program

In 2006, we helped our clients get over $100,000 in refunds.  All of the taxes are done with a computer and filed electronically to limit mistakes.  This program is open to all refugees, so even if you are not an IRC client, we will still do your taxes for free.

If you work, you must file a tax return. You may get money back!  IRC can help you fill out the forms for free.  Don’t pay someone to do it for you.  In early 2008, you will get a W-2 form in the mail from your employer(s). When IRC's 2008 free tax program begins, just bring your W-2 along with the additional items identified below to the IRC office at 5348 University Ave., Suite 205, San Diego, CA:

• Picture ID

• W-2 Forms from all of your 2006 employers

• Social Security cards for you, your spouse, and children

• 1099 form from bank (for interest earned), if applicable

• 1098T for post secondary school fees and tuition, if applicable

Complicated tax situations may not be eligible for free services
