This will ensure that you fulfill your legal obligations and avoid penalties or other problems—and may even help you save some money on your tax bill. In this workshop, Penn State Financial Literacy Manager, Daad Rizk and Cathy Bowen, professor and consumer issues specialist, will cover some important tax-related topics.
