What is the Arizona Military Family Relief Fund?

The Arizona Military Family Relief Fund was created to provide financial assistance to service members, Veterans and their families for unforeseen financial hardships caused by the service member's military service. MFRF is open to both pre 9/11 and post 9/11 Veterans. Assistance from the Arizona Military Family Relief Fund is determined by an Advisory Committee. The Committee is comprised of twelve members appointed by the Governor, as well as the Director of the Arizona Department of Veterans’ Services or their designee. 

How does the Fund help?

The MFRF program is in place to assist our service members, Veterans and their families in overcoming financial barriers. Common assistance includes, but is not limited to: rent/mortgage, utilities, car payments, etc.

What about the Arizona Tax Credit?

With this useful tax credit, you can assist Arizona Veterans in need while also enjoying a dollar-for-dollar tax credit on your Arizona state tax return. This charity fund has a $1 million cap for refundable Arizona tax credits, so it’s best to get your contribution in early during the year. Once $1 million in donations is reached, contributions will be considered charitable donations, not tax credits, therefore it's best to send your donation in early, so you are ensured a credit on your Arizona tax return.

Review the AZ Tax Credit Form 340 online HERE for $200 single/head-of-household or $400 married filing-jointly. It costs you nothing, yet allows you to redirect Arizona state tax dollars to support Veterans in need, making you the boss of the taxman!
