SUPPORT SERVICES l HELPS l SOAR NETWORK l BENEFIT BANK l COMMUNITY PARTNERS l HOME
Goodwill Industries of Arkansas has partnered with The Benefit Bank to help low- and moderate income wage earners obtain free assistance in filing federal and state income tax returns, and to identify work supports for which they may be eligible.
The Benefit Bank (TBB), a web-based, counselor-assisted program connects low-to-moderate income residents with access to potential work supports, such as health care coverage, home energy assistance, child-care subsidies and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (formerly Food Stamps).
TBB sites that offer tax preparation assistance, provide trained counselors to help clients with household incomes of less than $56,000 per year, file their tax returns at no cost. Eligible clients can also claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), a refundable federal income tax credit for low-to-moderate individuals and families.
Income tax refunds can be received within seven to 10 days through TBB e-filing with a counselor and a visit for free tax filing coupled with benefit eligibility screening and application completion can turn into so much more.
Benefit Bank counselors are available at the Goodwill location in downtown Little Rock, located at 1110 West 7th Street. For more information, please call (501) 372-5100.
