As tax season approaches, MAHUBE-OTWA Community Action Partnership is offering free tax preparation services to eligible residents. Our reporter has more on how you can benefit from this program.
MAHUBE-OTWA’s Volunteer Income Tax Assistance, or VITA, program provides free tax help to low-income households, individuals with disabilities, and those with limited English proficiency. Special consideration is given to seniors aged 60 and above. To qualify for in-person assistance, your adjusted gross income should be under $67,000. For those with higher incomes, online services are available.

To schedule an in-person appointment, visit their website or call their office. When attending your appointment, be sure to bring necessary documents, including Social Security cards for all individuals on the tax return, photo identification, income documentation such as W-2s and 1099 forms, and a copy of last year’s tax return if available. If you prefer to file your taxes yourself and your income is below $84,000, MAHUBE-OTWA offers a free online filing system through TaxSlayer. This cloud-based software guides you through the process, helping you find deductions and credits before electronically filing your federal and state taxes.
