Tax Credit is A WIN WIN!!
Pueblo Elementary has a goal to raise $40,000 in tax credit funds. We currently have $14,275.00 .
Good News! It only takes 62 married filers claiming their $400 dollar-for-dollar contribution to reach our goal! It's a win-win for families and Pueblo!
For more information click here. Submit your tax credit donation directly here
Did you know that Arizona law allows taxpayers to receive a dollar for dollar tax credit of up to $200 for individual filers and up to $400 for married filers for contributions made to SUSD schools? You can claim the tax credit when filing your Arizona State Income Tax return.
Feel free to contact Pueblo Parents Melisa or Matt Penkert at Pro Tax protax@protax1040.com (who did a great presentation at the November PTO Meeting) if you have any questions!
