Overview

Mission

Providing tax resolution services to the low income tax community in the West and South Texas areas.

What it reported doing in 2011

We offer tax resolution services to the low income tax community. We served about 150 individuals in controversy representation. 22% of the Federal funds we received was for the purpose of ESL education. We reached about 2,500 people through printed brochures in English and Spanish, television programs, and meetings. The topics of this education ranged from tax filing responsibilities, earned income tax credit requirements, and controversy tax preparation. We also educate self-employed individuals as to record-keeping requirements. We educate these taxpayers about the need to make estimated tax payments, and if that is difficult for them we send the checks in for them.
