Know Your Rights: Understanding The U.S. Tax System

We invite you to join us for our third Know Your Rights webinar, “Understanding The U.S. Tax System.” This is the third webinar in the Know Your Rights Series organized by the Human Trafficking Legal Center Survivor Leadership Program. Our featured speaker will be Sara Benowitz, director of the low-income tax clinic at Bet Tzedek Legal Services in Los Angeles.

Trafficking survivors in our community have expressed a need for more information on the United States’ complex tax system. In this webinar, we will explore questions including:

• What is gross income?
• Who needs to file taxes?
• What is the difference between a deduction and a credit?
• Who is responsible for withholding taxes?
• What are tax brackets?
• What is a 1099?
• And More!
