This service uses volunteer tax preparers who are certified by the IRS and serves families with incomes less than $80,000. Preparers help identify tax credits, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit that can save low and moderate families thousands of dollars.
Appointments are required. No drop-ins.
