Local Organizations Are Here to Help You
Under normal circumstances IRS-certified volunteers provide free, in-person, basic income tax return preparation with electronic filing to qualified individuals (those who made $57,000 or less in 2020) through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program. This year to protect the public’s health and safety, many are offering virtual and/or drop-off assistance. Check with your local provider for more details.
In addition to VITA, the Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) program offers free tax help for all taxpayers, particularly those who are 60 years of age and older, specializing in questions about pensions and retirement-related issues unique to seniors.
