The federal tax filing season through the Internal Revenue Service runs through April 15. Low- to moderate-income Entergy Arkansas customers can receive free IRS-certified Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) to ensure they are correctly filing returns for their greatest benefits, according to a news release.
IRS-certified volunteers from Entergy Arkansas and community partners offer a variety of services, including appointments for tax preparation services, drop-off tax prep services, online assistance, financial coaching, budget workshops and free legal services, at most VITA sites.
Entergy Arkansas is also helping those who qualify to claim their federal Earned Income Tax Credits, which can be up to $6,700 for those earning $57,000 or less. Funding for these tax assistance efforts is provided through Entergy shareholder contributions and does not impact customer bills, according to the release.
