Low-Income, Elderly Taxpayers Can Take Advantage of Free Tax Prep Services
Tax preparation can be very costly, and for those taxpayers on the lower end of the income scale and the elderly, the free tax preparation services provided by the IRS are valuable.
The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program offers free tax help to those people who earn less than $42, 000, while the Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) Program offers free tax help to those age 60 and older. Both programs are aimed towards those taxpayers who are up to date with filing of all tax returns.
These programs are very beneficial to taxpayers who cannot afford to pay someone to do their tax returns because the volunteers in these programs are trained in tax law and help prepare basic tax returns for those in need. They can also help with special credits, such as Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), Child Tax Credit, and Credit for the Elderly.
According to the IRS, nearly 12, 000 free tax preparation sites will be available nationwide throughout the tax season. Moreover, most of these sites will use free electronic filing.
Another benefit to those taxpayers who take advantage of electronic filing is that they will receive their refunds in half the time compared to those who file paper returns,cheapest nike air max, and if they have the refunds direct deposited into their bank accounts, these taxpayers will get their refunds even faster.
Also, as part of the TCE Program, AARP is offering Tax-Aide counseling at nearly 8, 000 sites nationwide. Trained and certified AARP Tax-Aide volunteer counselors will be on hand to help low-to-middle income taxpayers and those who are age 60 and older.
