This year’s extension to file and pay 2022 taxes has left Angelenos with many questions:  - Do I file now or wait? - Am I getting taxed if I received a stimulus check? - What about the 1099-K Reporting $600 Rule? Do I still have to pay? - I heard about smaller tax refunds this year. How does this impact me? - Is the Child Tax Credit reduced?  Free Tax Prep Los Angeles offers media access spokespersons and IRS-certified tax preparers to answer tax questions and give tips for what Angelenos need to know before they file and why they should not wait.     Live stand-ups as early as 4:30 a.m. are available upon request. Clients filing taxes will be available for interviews beginning at 7 a.m.     Tuesday, April 18, 2023, from 4:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.     KYCC, 3727 West 6th Street, Suite 410, Los Angeles 90020     To find free, IRS-certified tax prep in your community visit [freetaxprepla.org/locations](http://freetaxprepla.org/locations). Additionally, the City of Los Angeles’ 16 Community Investment for Families Department ([CIFD) FamilySource Centers](https://communityinvestmentforfamilies.org/familysource-centers), will also provide free tax preparation assistance and additional wraparound services until the October 16, 2023 tax filing deadline.     Free Tax Prep Los Angeles is a collaborative effort between the City of Los Angeles, Community Investment for Families Department, the Los Angeles County Department of Consumer and Business Affairs, Koreatown Youth and Community Center, Golden State Opportunity, and the United Way of Greater Los Angeles.     This year, the IRS expects more than 168 million tax returns this season. Nearly 1 million Los Angeles County residents received an earned income tax credit refund in previous years, but an estimated 330,750 did not apply for it, leaving almost $580 million on the table. FTPLA is a public awareness and education campaign that serves to promote and support the filing of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) among low-to moderate income communities in the City and County of Los Angeles.
