IMPORTANT INFORMATION
ALERT TO: Low-Income Retirees, Disabled Veterans and Low-Wage Earners
Starting in May, more than 130 million households will receive an economic stimulus payment from the Internal Revenue Service. Most people don't need to do anything special to get a payment; they can just file their taxes as usual and the IRS will do the rest.
But millions of people who are usually exempt from filing tax returns -- including low-income retirees, disabled veterans and low-wage earners -- must file a return in order to receive their payment.
You can help by serving as a resource for the individuals and families in your community.
The National Women's Law Center is hosting a free webinar to give service providers and advocates the information they need on the economic stimulus payments, including:
* Who's eligible for the payments
* How much the payments can be worth
* What individuals and families need to do to apply for the payments
* When individuals and families will receive the payments
* Tools that can help organizations educate the public
Register today for this webinar (free but registration required):
"Economic Stimulus Payments: What Families Need to Know"
Thursday, March 20, 2008 - 3:00 p.m. Eastern (Note: 2 pm CST)
To register, go to: http://action.nwlc.org/stimuluswebinar
These webinars are part of the National Women's Law Center's Citi Education Series on Family Economic Security: www.nwlc.org/educationseries
