OnTrack Financial Education and Counseling

Tax Time

Do you earn less than $40,000 annually? Tired of paying just to file your taxes?


You may be eligible for FREE income tax preparation. You may also be eligible for up to $4716 with the Earned Income Tax Credit. OnTrack can help make sure you are not among the 15-20% of eligible Americans who don’t claim their credit!


From February through April 15, OnTrack’s certified IRS-trained volunteers will prepare simple tax returns for FREE for individuals and families who earned less than $40,000 the previous tax year. Claim your refund and save those filing fees!

For more information on how to receive FREE tax preparation from OnTrack, please call our office at 828.255-5166 or 1.800.737.5485. For additional information about Earned Income Tax Credit call United Way’s 2-1-1 or visit www.irs.gov.

"I used to pay too much for tax preparation and didn’t get much money back.   Now, with free tax prep, I know for sure that I get all the money I deserve and they’re willing to explain things I don’t understand."
