Learn how the tax credits and tax loans (Refund Anticipation Loans) work and how to refer your clients to the right places for FREE tax assistance. Get valuable resources and information.
This year, there will be video conferencing to 14 greater Minnesota locations on January 19. In February, a DVD of the video conference will be available to agencies and organizations for staff development throughout the year.
