Several Tax Sites STILL Open in the Orlando Area for FREE Tax Prep

TITLE

Several Tax Sites are Still Open in the Orlando Area for FREE Tax Preparation after April 18!                      

The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program is a free tax preparation service run by volunteers offered to families throughout Orange, Osceola and Seminole counties.

VITA offers free tax help to those who make $54,000 or less and need assistance in preparing their tax returns. IRS-certified volunteers will provide free basic income tax return preparation with electronic filing. We also provide other essential information, like special tax credits you may qualify for to maximize your tax refund. If you qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), you can get over $6,000 back.

United Way can help by connecting you to free tax preparation sites.

VITA Sites and MyFreeTaxes.com

For many families throughout Central Florida, annual tax refunds can provide a much needed financial boost. But for those that need it most, many end up losing large portions of their refund because of high filing costs and additional fees for quick access to their refunds. Heart of Florida United Way believes that you should hold on to your money – all of it.

 

Besides our VITA sites, if you prefer filing online, we’ve got that covered too. Visit MyFreeTaxes to file for free 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition to the convenience of filing at a time that works for you, MyFreeTaxes utilizes secured software, so you have the peace of mind that your information is safe. MyFreeTaxes also offers help with filing questions through phone, chat or email.
