WASHINGTON -- If you need federal tax
information in Spanish, you can find it in the form of recorded
tax topics, free tax publications and toll-free telephone
assistance from the Internal Revenue Service.
TeleTax is a toll-free automated service, in
English and Spanish, providing helpful tax topics and refund
information. You can find a list of the 151 TeleTax topics
in the instructions for Form 1040, 1040A or 1040EZ. TeleTax
can also help you if it's been at least four weeks since you filed
your return and you want to check on the status of your federal
refund. Having a copy of the tax return handy will help you
respond to the prompts on the automated system. TeleTax is
available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 1-800-829-4477.
Free
Spanish publications are available by calling 1-800-829-3676.
Some of the more popular ones are:
-- Publication 1SP, "Derechos del
Contribuyente (Your Rights as a Taxpayer)".
-- Publication 579SP, "Como Preparar la
Declaración de Impuesto," explains who has to file a federal
tax return and other important topics, such as which form to file,
who are dependents, what income is taxable and nontaxable, and
what some of the more common tax credits are.
-- Publication 596SP, "Crédito por
Ingreso del Trabajo," provides details on the Earned Income
Tax Credit.
You
can also talk with a Spanish-speaking IRS representative by
calling (toll free) 1-800-829-1040.
