…connecting you with vital tax services in North Carolina |
Controversy Services (LITC) Through the IRS's LITC (Low Income Taxpayer Clinic) program, households earning less than the IRS stated income limit (generally $50,000) have access to follow-up tax and legal services at no or little cost. Low Income Taxpayer Clinics (LITCs) represent low income taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service, assist taxpayers in audits, appeals and collection disputes, and can help taxpayers respond to IRS notices and to correct account problems. If you are a low income taxpayer who cannot afford professional tax assistance or if you speak English as a second language (ESL) and need help understanding your taxpayer rights and responsibilities, you may qualify for free help. This program allows the low-income tax filer to rectify any past reporting issues and settle any outstanding taxes and/or fines with the IRS. Once tax filers have rectified past issues, they are able to move forward on more stable financial footing. |
In addition to the established Controversy services offered by NC Legal Aid, North Carolina Central University will expanded its clinics to encompass controversy services in 2011. To access controversy services through NCCU or NC Legal Aid, follow one of the links below: |
