Credit Union ONE OFFERS FREE INCOME TAX SERVICES - Statewide Program Aims to Help Families Claim Refunds, Credits

Ferndale, MI — With many Michigan residents facing economic woes and struggling to make ends meet, a little extra cash can make a big difference. That’s why Credit Union ONE has joined forces to promote Just file it! We’ll Help.

Over 124 Michigan credit unions, including Credit Union ONE, are promoting Just file it! to their membership. The Just file it! program returned over $13.5 million to individuals and families last year. “The need for a program like Just File It! is greater than ever,” said Gary Moody, President/CEO of Credit Union ONE. “Which is why Credit Union ONE is proud to join the network of credit unions and other nonprofits offering Just file it! to help families put food on the table, move into better housing, invest in education or save for the future.”

All that is required to use the Just file it! program is a computer, Internet access, a Web browser and a printer. The program uses a free, Web-based software program, posing questions to users and offering assistance via video tutorials. It is offered in both English and Spanish.
