Low Income Taxpayer Clinics

Low Income Taxpayer Clinics (LITCs) are nonprofit organizations that assist individuals with low incomes in dealing with tax-related issues. They provide free or low-cost services, including help with tax disputes, filing tax returns, and understanding tax rights. LITCs often serve those who speak languages other than English and can represent clients before the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in cases such as audits or appeals. Their goal is to ensure that low-income taxpayers receive fair treatment and access to essential tax information and advocacy.
