Money Talks Webinar Series

Tax Time… Get Ready!

Wednesday, March 17 from 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm – REGISTER

Tax season is here. Everyone wants to make sure that they get their taxes right and pay their fair share, but not more. However, filing taxes can be confusing and stressful. Taxes are a fact of life when you are working and there may be an opportunity to receive a large payment through your tax refund. Join us as we break down taxes into simple concepts and discuss how to prepare to file your taxes this year.

You’ll also learn more about free tax preparation programs and resources that may be able to help, including the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, which offers low to moderate-income individuals assistance with filing their taxes. And, you’ll hear a personal account from someone who has used VITA services to file their taxes.

Attendees will learn about:

  • The Who, What, and When of income taxes and how they are calculated;
  • The key components of a 1040 form and how you can review your own;
  • Programs that can help with tax preparation in Pennsylvania; and
  • How to get the most out of your tax refund.

For questions or help with registration, please contact Megan Bolin at 888-744-1938 or via email.

Join us and gain the tools you need to have an impact.

Each Money Talks webinar hosted by Pennsylvania Assistive Technology Foundation will provide information and resources to handle the unique financial issues that impact individuals with disabilities, including new challenges that have arisen as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. If you are a person with a disability, a family member of someone with a disability, an advocate, an educator, or a service provider, this series is for you. Each session will be fully accessible and recordings, transcript, and slides will be made available.
