VITA
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance
Taxpayer Eligibility: 2008 Tax Returns
VITA volunteers at our sites provide free tax help to taxpayers earning less that $42,000 a year.
Our volunteers are trained to help you with your tax return. However, there may be complex issues for which we need to
refer you to a paid preparer. We cannot prepare your return if:
- You were self-employed (your income is reported to you on a form 1099) and have business expenses exceeding $5,000
- You have farm income
- You owned stocks or bonds and sold them
- You received a lump sum distribution of your entire amount from your pension plan
- You were a resident alien part of the year and a non-resident alien the other part of the year
- You are a US citizen or resident alien with foreign earned income
- You do not have a photo ID
