The Richmond library is once again providing free tax clinics to low-income people.
This is the 14th year the library is offering tax clinics in partnership with The Lord’s Harvest Fellowship.
Trained volunteers will help community members with low income to file their tax returns at the Brighouse branch on Saturdays until April 26 (no clinic on April 19).
In 2024, volunteers helped more than 200 individuals prepare their taxes at no cost.
To qualify for this service, individuals must have a maximum income of $35,000 and a couple must have a maximum income of $45,000 plus $2,500 per child. Couples will need to sign up for one appointment per person.
This year’s clinics will continue to follow a drop-off and pickup format.
Registration is now open. Interested community members can learn more about this service and register for an appointment by calling 604-231-6413 or visiting Brighouse library’s 2nd floor Ask Me desk.
A piece of government-issued ID and all relevant tax slips such as T4, T5 and Canada Child Benefit slips must be brought to the appointment.
All print documents will be returned to the participant at their pickup time.
Drop-off appointments are available between 10:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
The deadline to file is on April 30.
