BATH — Midcoast CA$H is a member of CA$H Maine and is one of over 12,000 Volunteer Income Tax Assistance programs across the country that the IRS relies on to help people file their taxes every year, completely free of charge. In 2017, IRS certified volunteers helped more than 300 individuals in the Midcoast qualify for and keep 100 percent of their refunds.
“For 10 years, Midcoast CA$H has helped individuals and families get their maximum refund that they use on necessities, like paying bills, paying down debt, making new purchases, and saving,” said Maria Hinteregger, United Way of Mid Coast Maine and Midcoast CA$H lead coordinator. “We are dedicated to helping as many community members as we can.”
Generally, individuals who make less than $54,000 are eligible to have their taxes prepared and e-filed for free.
