Description:
Congress passed the Protection Against Tax Hikes (PATH) Act in December
2015. This unexpected federal law made some tax credits permanent and also
impacted the validity of ITINs and the ability of clients to obtain tax credits
and/or refunds depending when they receive their Tax Identification Number. This
training will create alert advocates who will know how to spot tax issues and
related tax benefits for their immigrant clients, and may be able to prevent
clients from missing deadlines for those benefits.
After the training, attorneys may donate time to the GBLS Low-Income Taxpayer
Clinic in-house or by accepting pro bono cases.
