Roni Deutch Tax Center and NJ Nets to Will Offer Free Tax Preparation

Less than a month after Roni Deutch Tax Center partnered with the Sacramento Kings for the “Kings Tax Night,” the Roni Deutch Tax Center has also partnered with the NJ Nets to offer a similar promotion to residents of New York and New Jersey. This Friday representatives from local Roni Deutch Tax Centers will be available to answer questions, and all fans who attend the game will receive a coupon that they can redeem at a Roni Deutch Tax Center to get their state income tax done free.

According to NYTimes.com, “the Nets will not be paying their fans’ tax bills, and a similar coupon can be downloaded from Roni Deutch’s Web site. Deutch charges $29 to prepare a state income tax return and $185 for a federal return.” Roni Deutch had no trouble linking her fortunes to the worst team in the N.B.A.; in fact, she said she relished the chance.

“It’s easy to jump on the Lakers’ bandwagon,” said Deutch, who claims to have been the first girl to play Little League baseball on an all-boys team in her home state, California. “The hallmark of a strong company is one that aligns with young companies. I’m a betting woman, and I bet the Nets are going to win a championship this decade.”
