I’ve got some more information about free tax preparation and filing services being provided through the Wal-Mart Foundation, in conjunction with United Way and One Economy Corp. The Wal-Mart Foundation’s $3.6 million grant will launch a mobile tax filing tour and volunteer income tax assistance campaign across the nation, hoping more low- and moderate-income families will use the Earned Income Tax Credit, a refundable federal income tax credit.

  According to Austin Bonner, director of communications & media relations with One Economy Corp., there will be San Diego County assistance in Borrego Springs, San Ysidro and San Diego city, from March 20 – 28. “We don’t have all the specific locations confirmed yet, but we’ll be posting them at www.myfreetaxes.com as we do.  Your readers who feel comfortable filing online for themselves will also find a link there to free online tax preparation and filing,” Bonner said in an email to me today.
