Tax Rebates and Help for Seniors

Thanks to Betsy Thompson, Superintendent of Recreation, for sending along this important information for >senior citizens. Last week my aunt called from Florida to ask if I knew about the rebate procedure for those receiving social security, so I know it is of concern.

“Seniors can receive a minimum rebate of $300 if they file a tax return for 2007. Individuals must have earned at least $3,000 in 2007 including social security, veterans benefits, and earned income. SSI does not count. Tax volunteers will be at the Rockville Senior Center Tuesdays, beginning in March, to help file tax returns. To make an appointment, call 240-314-8810. “

Also, if Rockville seniors who file a regular tax return (married couples with an income above $18,500 and individuals with an income over $10,500) need help filing, they can call 240-777-2577 to set up an appointment with a tax volunteer.

Don’t miss this opportunity to get the tax rebate. We can all use it!
