Tax Preparation Reimbursement for farmers participating receiving PFAS support
Farms affected by PFAS contamination have a wide variety of needs to enable financial stability and, where possible, future farm viability. Farms that have received funding from DACF, the Maine PFAS Fund and/or the Maine Farm Emergency Relief Fund for PFAS face new tax implications as a result. MOFGA and MFT see a need for providing financial support to these farms to navigate the implications of their participation in PFAS related support programs.

Eligibility

  •  Farms have participated in the Maine Farm Emergency Relief Fund (MFEF) for PFAS income replacement or infrastructure programs, or received equivalent types of funding from state of Maine programs. Participants in the MFEF testing and mental health programs alone are not eligible for support.

   Use

  • The funds are used to directly pay a tax advisor or reimburse a farmer for tax advice or preparation services related to their participation in PFAS financial support programs. 

Process 

  • Farms who have participated in the MFEF income replacement or infrastructure programs will be notified by MOFGA and MFT of their eligibility. MOFGA will also contact DACF to ask them to notify additional eligible farms who have received state financial assistance. 

  • Farms submit a google form application requesting financial assistance for tax advice and preparation.
