HELP US PROMOTE IRS-CERTIFIED TAX PREPARATION SERVICES IN LA COUNTY AVAILABLE FOR YOUR CONSTITUENTS FOR FREE THIS TAX SEASON!

Each year, thousands of County residents miss out on thousands in refundable tax credits due to lack of awareness, misinformation about eligibility, or unqualified tax preparers.

Tax credits and refunds can help save thousands of dollars for working families, but the cost of professional tax services can be a significant barrier. That’s where we come in!

The L.A. Department of Consumer and Business Affairs Center for Financial Empowerment is partnering with Free Tax Prep LA to help families claim thousands of dollars in refunds this tax season. We offer free tax preparation services with IRS-certified specialists in LA County.
