The NYC Department of Finance will analyze past tax returns to see if people qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit. If they do qualify the office will complete amended tax returns which they will send to recipients for simple verification and with a stamped envelope to return the form. In 2007 over $10 million was found for 16,000 households. http://www.nyc.gov/html/dca/html/initiatives/eitc.shtml Working families earning less than $40,000 a year could be eligible for as much as $6,000. It's not too late for New York City residents to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit! If you qualify for the EITC - but never claimed it - you can amend your taxes and file for up to three years back, as much as tripling a refund! There are sites operated by the IRS which can be found by calling 800-827-1040 or by going online at http://www.irs.gov/localcontacts/index.html The NYC EITC Coalition operates sites for free tax preparation. Most are open 8:30-4:30, offer free services to those making under $39,000 and offer language assistance. You can find them at:
