Tax Credits For Families: "You've Earned It, So Claim It!"
As tax season starts and families begin to receive their W-2 forms, the Nebraska Children and Families Foundation (NCFF) is involved in a collaborative public education campaign to inform families about federal and state tax credits. These credits can help offset the high costs of child care and other expenses.
Families can be eligible for:
• Up to $2,100 from the Nebraska Credit for Child
and Dependent Care Expenses
• Up to $4,716 from the Federal Earned Income
Credit and up to $472 from the Nebraska Earned
Income Credit, and
• Up to $1,000 per child from the Federal Child
Tax Credit.
Find out where you can get free tax preparation assistance for the 2008 tax season by calling 2-1-1 or (877) 557-2200.
This campaign is sponsored by the Nebraska Statewide EITC Coalition: Partners to promote tax assistance.
