Would you like to help out and provide free tax preparation services to low- and moderate-income taxpayers and learn valuable skills through this volunteer training opportunity?
Our trained volunteers provide quality tax return assistance to taxpayers; prepare tax returns based on taxpayers' documentation and preparers' tax law training (1040, 1040A, 1040EZ); prepare tax returns using electronic filing software; and provide assistance only to the level of their training. You will also work one-on-one with families; help families save money; receive free training to put on your resume; gain experience and confidence for future employment; and get information to help you with your own tax return, all while making a HUGE contribution to your community.
Volunteers will provide service during the tax season, February through April. You will need to complete the self-paced, on-line “Link and Learn” training (approximately 30 hours of training); attend “Taxwise” software training and volunteer orientation (approximately 10 hours); and then spend time each week for 10 weeks during tax season volunteering at a local tax prep site.
