LOW INCOME TAXPAYER CLINIC
What can Three Rivers Legal Services do to help?
If you are a low income taxpayer who cannot afford a tax attorney, you may qualify for free help from Three Rivers’ Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic. We represent low income persons before the Internal Revenue Service in audits, appeals, collection issues, tax debt relief and other tax issues and disputes for free. We do not prepare tax returns but, when necessary, may provide for the preparation of an Internal Revenue Service tax return when one has not been filed or needs to be amended to correct errors in the amount of taxes due.
We receive partial funding for this clinic from the Internal Revenue Service. However, the clinic and its volunteers are not employed by the IRS. The clinic is operated by Three Rivers Legal Services, which is a private not-for-profit organization
