The United Way of Allen County is partnering with two local organizations to provide a Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program. The program aims to help community members prepare and file their taxes for free. The VITA program is designed to assist individuals and families with low to moderate income.
IRS-certified volunteers will be available to help participants navigate their tax documents and understand relevant deductions and credits. The assistance will be offered at various locations throughout Allen County.
Free tax help for community
The specific sites and times for the program will be announced soon. This initiative is part of United Way’s broader mission to improve financial stability and community well-being. It also aims to reduce the stress and challenges associated with tax season.
United Way encourages eligible community members to take advantage of this free service. They also advise people to be vigilant about potential tax scams during the filing season. For more information on the VITA program or to find a location near you, visit the United Way of Allen County’s official website or contact their office directly.
