2-1-1 is available to connect residents to FREE local tax assistance resources

Friday, February 7, 2025 at 11:00 PM

Tax season is quickly approaching. The IRS will start accepting returns in late January, with the end of tax season on Tax Day, April 15, 2024. Indiana 211 has partnered with the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, which offers FREE tax help to people who generally make $60,000 or less, persons with disabilities, the elderly and limited English-speaking taxpayers who need assistance in preparing their own tax returns. Through VITA, IRS-certified volunteers provide free basic income tax return preparation with electronic filing to qualified individuals.  
   
No application is needed to use this service. Assistance is provided at community and neighborhood centers, and other convenient locations throughout the state.    

Find VITA Locations HERE or call 2-1-1 for additional information about FREE tax assistance resources available in your community.
