TAX SERVICES
Understanding and fulfilling tax obligations is the foundation of financial security and stability. Failure to file and pay correct, timely, and complete tax returns is a legal, financial, and emotional burden. The Iowa Center provides access to both personal and small business tax preparation services to help ensure your financial house is in order through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program and Small Business Tax Prep + Planning Program.Â
What is VITA?
The IRS’s Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program offers free tax help to individuals, families, and small businesses filing on a Schedule C. VITA is available to people who generally make $67,000 or less, and provides specialized assistance for persons with disabilities, the elderly, and limited English-speaking taxpayers.
As leader of the Iowa statewide VITA coalition, The Iowa Center partners with 21 organizations who operate 80 tax sites across the state to ensure that VITA income tax preparation is accessible to qualified individuals all across Iowa. The Iowa Center directly operates 12 VITA tax sites to support individuals and small businesses who need support getting their financial house in order.
