FREE Income Tax Assistance

United Way of Central Oklahoma is focused on Strong Families. They believe financial stability is a critical component to strengthening a family.

One of the ways they help working families improve their bottom line is by helping them secure the tax credits they have earned.  This spring they opened their office each Saturday to individuals and families earning less the $42,000 annually for FREE income tax preparation assistance. Many families left with as much as 10% of their annual incomes being returned to them through tax credits.

If you would like help with your income tax filing feel free to contact the United Way for assistance at 1-405-236-8441 or 1-918-583-7171.
