Hey everyone,

Can someone give me an idea of how to sign up for volunteer income tax assistance. I have been on the IRS’s website and searched for vita but I can’t seem to find anything meaningful to help me get certified. I really want to prepare taxes this coming tax season but I have not experience. Can anyone help me?

Thank you!

Click on the VITA/TCE central link. You should be able to get certified through there.

I posted a couple of links in the thread above. I'd advise you to locate a local site host and talk with them about volunteering. They can provide you with training materials as well. Some sites fill up on volunteers, so I would contact them as soon as you can. The site here generally starts recruiting around mid-November – I'm not sure about others. VITA is a great program – I hope you enjoy the experience!!
