I-CAN! E-File available in Pennsylvania

 I-CAN ^TM E-File is web-based software that allows low-income workers to electronically file their income taxes and apply for the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) online at no charge. The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is a special tax credit for low-income working families that can return up to $5,657 to eligible taxpayers. Unfortunately 15 to 25% of those eligible for the Earned Income Tax Credit fail to claim it, leaving billions of dollars unclaimed each year. I-CAN!® E-File will help you claim this credit if you are eligible. You must have earned income to apply for the EITC. 

I-CAN!^TM E-FILE is written at a 5th grade literacy level and is available in English and Spanish.  Participants answer questions and I-CAN!^TM E-FILE prepares their tax forms for them and E-Files the tax returns.  A tax return can be prepared in approximately 30 minutes.  You must know your last years Adjusted Gross Income to complete the filing process.

To help low-income wage earners take advantage of the EITC tax credit, MidPenn Legal Services will offer free computer access at any of their local offices.  Please contact your local MidPenn office to schedule an appointment.
