We are still accepting appointments for our newly launched Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program. Appointments are available on select days from Feb. 10 through Mar. 31.
The VITA program, operated by the IRS for over 50 years, provides free tax help to qualified individuals who need assistance in preparing their own tax returns. This will be the first tax season that MCCF will serve as a VITA site, with all volunteer tax preparers being locally sourced.
To qualify for the program, individuals must meet one or more of the following criteria:
• People who generally make $67,000 or less
• Persons with disabilities
• Limited English-speaking taxpayers
Note that VITA services are available for current-year (2024) tax returns only.
Appointments will be one hour long, with two volunteers reviewing each return. Available appointments are limited and must be scheduled in advance.
Appointment times:
• Mondays: 5:30–7:30 PM.
• Wednesdays: 1–4 PM.
• Thursdays: 2–4 PM
The Foundation will also be open one Saturday, from 9 AM to noon, on March 15.
