Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA), led by United Way of St. Joseph County, is offering an additional option for taxpayers wanting to benefit from the FREE e-filing services provided through VITA. United Way is now participating in MyFreeTaxes, a free tax preparation website powered by H&R Block. By visiting www.MyFreeTaxes.com/UWtaxhelp, taxpayers with a household income of $57,000 or less will have the opportunity to file state and federal taxes for free with no cost to e-file.
In addition to being free, e-filing through www.MyFreeTaxes.com/UWtaxhelp is easy, providing step-by-step instructions and even features a help phone line and email to get assistance from an IRS-certified professional. The MyFreeTaxes program includes Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), SNAP and WIC education and is powered by a $4.35 million grant from the Walmart Foundation.
If you have an income of $51,000 or less and would like to have your taxes prepared and filed for FREE by an IRS-certified tax preparer, please dial 2-1-1 to schedule an appointment at a VITA site near you.
These very popular coupon cards each feature about 16 local and regional golf courses and have been designed to save you money, even if you only play a couple of times this year! All coupons are for a free round and 1/2 cart, as long as you go with a partner who pays for their round and 1/2 cart, just like they always do. This is not designed for golfers who play alone.
United Way of St. Joseph County would like to offer a special thank you to our great community partner, 1st Source Bank, for sponsoring United Way's Pro$perity Building campaign and for promoting financial stability in our community. Thank you!
