California Tax Relief Information

Home | State Tax Relief Information | California Tax Relief Information

If you live in California, you may be able to reduce what you owe to the California Franchise Tax Board (FTB), which is a part of the California Government Operations Agency. The FTB is responsible for administering the Homeowner and Renter Assistance program and collecting personal and business income taxes in California. They also collect child support liability, tax penalties and vehicle registration delinquencies.

At BC Tax, our tax consultants are on standby to help you figure out your relief eligibility. We also assist California residents and businesses with tax back dates and tax liabilities. Contact us today to learn more about programs like the Middle Class Tax Refund (MCTR) and determine whether you qualify or if you should pursue financial protection from the FTB.

How Much Tax Debt Do You Have?

What Was the Middle Class Tax Refund?

In 2023, the Franchise Tax Board issued over $9 billion to California residents and their dependents in a new tax relief program called the Middle Class Tax Refund. This California tax relief program was a one-time payment issued by the FTB to eligible California residents. These payments were issued between October 2022 and January 2023.

Who Qualified for California’s Middle Class Tax Refund?

You may have qualified for the California Middle Class Tax Refund if you were a resident of California for over six months during the 2020 tax year and filed your 2020 California tax return by October 15, 2021. Some additional criteria were that:

  • You were a California resident when the Franchise Tax Board issued your MCTR payment.
  • You didn’t qualify as an independent during the 2020 tax year.
  • You met the California adjusted gross (CA AGI) income limits for your tax filing status.

Updated Review on 7/1/2025: I have received an email and a call from Nicole who is now working really hard to get the problems mentioned below settled for my husband and myself. She is going to work directly with the IRS (which is a relief for us). I actually feel more comfortable with her than the rest so I am changing my review to a 5 star.

I stared out working with BC tax and felt like I was getting the help I need. They kept needing more and more money. I finally had things settled and was making the payments as I was suppose to. All of a sudden we get a letter that we owe 2,000.00 because we had not been making the payments. No one told me and I didn't realized that everything had to be in my husband's name. I was making the payment out of my bank account and set up the online IRS login was in my name. Then I get a email after I reached to BS Tax on May 29, 2025 about this and and finally received an email on June 30, 2025 from someone other the person helping me that we were in default and that they needed another 1,500.00 to work on our case. Sorriest customer service I have ever had.

After years of basically trying to right a wrong with the IRS including trying to get help from DFAS, The Army Headquarters, the IG of the Army and my senator I was unsuccessful in getting the help I needed after 17 years of being acknowledged as a correct concern. So, I sought professional help from BCTax . Megan Bridge was the primary source of help for me and it was superb. I am rnow straight with the IRS and feel like I learned a lot and am a VERRY satisfied customer.
