VITA
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance
VITA provides free tax filing for households with incomes of approximately $60,000 or less (depending on program.) Trained volunteers assist you to file your federal and state taxes and claim the benefits you qualify for, like a credit for having a child, donating to charity, and the Earned Income Tax Credit. If you don’t qualify for VITA, another free filing option is MyFreeTaxes.com.
Contact your local VITA site to find out if you qualify and make an appointment. You can also read more about MyFreeTaxes.com below, a service that allows people to file their taxes regardless of income for free!
