Tax problems can be costly and confusing. Taxpayers Help Center, Inc. helps low-income taxpayers with tax problems who can’t afford to hire a professional.
Client eligibility for both clinics depends on the individual’s financial situation, the tax controversies elements, and the clinics’ workload. Upon recommendation by the Director, clinic officials decide whether the clinic will represent individuals. The clinic generally handles only civil federal income or employment tax matters. Potential clients must provide information about their financial status.

Qualifying Dependents – Did You Know?
In addition to your children and parents, a number of other individuals may qualify as your dependents for tax purposes. Important factors can include the person's income, how much support you provide, and how much of the year the person lives with you. In some limited cases, even a non-relative who lives with you year round as a member of your household may qualify as a dependent.

Health Savings Accounts - Did You Know?
Changing jobs? If you have a health savings account (HSA), you can take it with you. Unlike flexible spending accounts (FSAs), which are usually tied to your employer, your HSA belongs to you. You can continue using your HSA funds after leaving the job where you opened the account. However, you may make new HSA contributions only if you remain eligible to contribute. To remain eligible, you generally must be covered by an HSA-eligible high-deductible health plan (HDHP) and have no disqualifying coverage.

Receiving Online Payments - Did You Know?
If you are self-employed and receive payments through online payment processing platforms, take care to separate business and personal transactions. You can do this by setting up separate business accounts on the platforms, or by using features that allow you to specify the purpose of payments. Otherwise, the platforms may overreport your income.
