The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program offers free tax help to people who generally make $54,000 or less, persons with disabilities and limited English speaking taxpayers who need assistance in preparing their own tax returns. IRS-certified volunteers provide free basic income tax return preparation with electronic filing to qualified individuals. In addition to VITA, the Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) program offers free tax help for all taxpayers, particularly those who are 60 years of age and older, specializing in questions about pensions and retirement-related issues unique to seniors. The IRS-certified volunteers who provide tax counseling are often retired individuals associated with non-profit organizations that receive grants from the IRS.   What to Bring: ·         Proof of identification (photo ID) ·         Social Security cards for you, your spouse and dependents  ·         An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) assignment letter may be substituted for you, your spouse and your dependents if you do not have a Social Security number ·         Proof of foreign status, if applying for an ITIN ·         Birth dates for you, your spouse and dependents on the tax return ·         Wage and earning statements (Form W-2, W-2G, 1099-R,1099-Misc) from all employers ·         Interest and dividend statements from banks (Forms 1099) ·         All Forms 1095, Health Insurance Statements ·         Health Insurance Exemption Certificate, if received ·         A copy of last year’s federal and state returns, if available ·         Proof of bank account routing and account numbers for direct deposit such as a blank check ·         To file taxes electronically on a married-filing-joint tax return, both spouses must be present to sign the required forms ·         Total paid for daycare provider and the daycare provider's tax identifying number such as their Social Security number or business Employer Identification Number ·         Forms 1095-A, B or C, Affordable Health Care Statements ·         Copies of income transcripts from IRS and state, if applicable HARVARD LAW SCHOOL @ CAMBRIDGE LIBRARY 449 BROADWAY  CAMBRIDGE PUBLIC LIBRARY  CAMBRIDGE, MA 02138 Get Directions 0.7 MI 05 FEB 2016 -  15 APR 2016 MON 5:00PM - 8:00PM FRI 12:30PM - 4:30PM SAT 10:00AM - 3:00PM ENGLISH NOT REQUIRED CEOC VITA 11 INMAN STREET VOLUNTEER PREPARED AND SELF-PREP CAMBRIDGE, MA 02139 617-868-2900 Get Directions 0.9 MI 19 JAN 2016 -  30 JUN 2016 SPANISH ENGLISH FARSI REQUIRED BUNKER HILL COMMUNITY COLLEGE 250 NEW RUTHERFORD AVE ROOM D-206 VOLUNTEER PREPARED AND SELF-PREP CHARLESTOWN, MA 02129 617-228-3268 Get Directions 1.6 MI 26 JAN 2016 -  29 APR 2016 TUE 10:00AM - 8:00PM WED 10:00AM - 8:00PM THU 10:00AM - 1:00PM 2:25PM - 5:00PM FRI 10:00AM - 5:00PM SAT 10:00AM - 4:00PM ENGLISH, Spanish, Haitian Creole, Farsi, and Portuguese(call ahead for other Languages) NOT REQUIRED BHA CHARLESTOWN/CHARLESTOWN WORKS 76 MONUMENT STREET  2ND FLOOR CHARLESTOWN, MA 02129 617-635-5169 Get Directions 2.0 MI 27 JAN 2016 -  15 APR 2016 ENGLISH Last edited: 17-Feb-16 03:27 PM
