Low Income Taxpayer Clinic
MidPenn's Low Income Taxpayer Clinic (LITC) provides free legal advice and representation to low-income taxpayers and taxpayers who speak English as a second language. The LITC does not provide assistance with tax preparation.

- Preventing IRS collection in cases of financial hardship.
- Helping taxpayers obtain reasonable payment agreements.
- Tax problems arising from identity theft.
- Innocent spouse cases.
The LITC also conducts educational programs on tax issues to local social service agencies and community groups. If your organization is interested in hosting an education seminar about the LITC or specific tax issues, click here.
