Rep. Pramila Jayapal is hosting an informative webinar on the IRS Direct File program, a free tax filing service that empowers taxpayers to file their taxes without cost. The event is set for February 25, 2025, from 6 PM to 7 PM PST, featuring IRS representatives who will address questions and concerns regarding the program. Last year, Washington State was among only 12 states participating in the pilot program, which has proven successful and is now available in 25 states, allowing millions of taxpayers to access vital tax credits. This initiative is particularly significant for constituents of Washington’s 7th Congressional District, who have the opportunity to learn about the benefits of Direct File.

Interested individuals are encouraged to check their eligibility and RSVP promptly, as space is limited. The event reflects Jayapal's commitment to enhancing taxpayer access to essential services and ensuring that residents can benefit from available tax credits. Attendees can reach her office for further assistance via phone or email, reinforcing the accessibility of government resources. This webinar is a timely opportunity for taxpayers to gain insight into a valuable resource as tax season approaches.
