$13,960 Total Refunds Obtained at Free Tax Preparation Day 

Queens, NY – To help his constituents file their taxes more easily and on time, New York State Senator Joseph Addabbo, Jr.(D-Queens), held a free tax preparation day on Friday, March 16, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. 

The free event brought trained volunteers from City University of New York and Food Bank for New York City to prepare state and federal income taxes for those who qualified for this assistance.

Those providing tax preparation assistance were able to get a total of $13,960 refunded to 30 attendees.

    

Similar events held last year helped more than 37,000 taxpayers in New York City to bring more than $65 million in tax refunds and credits back into the city. New Yorkers who earn $50,000 or less with dependents, or $18,000 or less without dependents, were eligible for the City University of New York and Food Bank for New York City's free tax assistance by their trained volunteers.
