The Oklahoma Native Assets Coalition, Inc. (ONAC) has partnered with IRS Stakeholder Partnerships, Education, and Communication (SPEC) and agreed to post a link on our website to MyFreeTaxes.com.
For the next tax season, if you are a filing a simple return, and have an Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) under $66,000 per tax return, you are invited to file your state and federal returns, for free, by using this MyFreeTaxes link: https://www.unitedway.org/myfreetaxes/.
To file your taxes on MyFreeTaxes.com, you will need the following:
• Last year’s Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) when e-filing you must enter last year’s AGI to validate your return. You can obtain this from last year’s tax return or through the IRS (https://www.irs.gov/individuals/electronic-filing-pin-request). MyFreeTaxes, using H&R Block’s software, allows you to import your previous year returns from other tax preparation software.
• W-2s for each job held in 2017 for each person in the household, this form reports your name, wages, and other tax information to the IRS.
• 1099s showing other income (unemployment, social security, school loans, health care reimbursement, state tax refund, gambling winnings, contract work) that is reported to the IRS.
• 1098s showing payments you’ve made (school loans, property tax).
