BRIGHTON PARK — Need help with your taxes?
Head to Kelly High School to meet with staffers from the Center For Economic Progress. If your family makes less than $50,000 a year — or you’re an individual who makes less than $25,000 a year — the group will file your taxes for free.
The service will be available at 4136 S. California Ave. from 5:30-8 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays and on from 10 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturdays. The service will be offered through April 16.
Make sure to get there early: Help is offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
Here’s what you’ll need to bring:
• All W-2s and 1099s (if any) for the year involved
• Social Security cards or Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITINs) for all family members
• Valid photo ID for the person filing
• Copy of previous year’s tax return, if possible
• Bank account number and routing number if you choose to direct deposit your tax refund
• Property tax bill
• Amount spent on college expenses
• Any letters from the IRS, if applicable
• Proof of health insurance coverage
