Eligibility

Do You Qualify for Tax Clinic Representation?

In order to be considered for Tax Clinic representation, the terms of our federal grant require that you meet the following criteria:

1. You must have a current dispute with the Internal Revenue Service; 2. There must be no more than $50,000 in controversy for any single tax year; 3. Your current income must be less than 250% of the United States-established federal poverty guidelines, which are currently as follows:

Size of Family
Income Not Greater than:
1
$27,075
2
$36,425
3
$45,775
4
$55,125
5
$64,475
6
$73,825
7
$83,175
8
$92,525

If your family size is more than 8persons, add $9,350 for each additional member. So, for example, if your family size is 9 members, your income must not be greater than $92,525 + $9,350, or $101, 875.

Please also be advised that the Clinic cannot always accept as clients all individuals that meet these criteria and otherwise qualify for representation.
