Josephine Library Partners with VITA to Offer No-Cost Income Tax Assistance
Citizens can receive help completing their federal and state taxes at no cost with assistance from Josephine County Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) volunteers at the Grants Pass branch of Josephine Community Library.
VITA volunteers will be available from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. from Monday, February 4th, through April 11th at the library branch located at 200 NW C Street.
On Fridays with an appointment, VITA will assist participants who wish to file their own taxes by setting up a profile with free TaxSlayer filing software -- some computer skills are required.
Appointments can also be scheduled on Tuesdays with an in-person tax preparer to file on your behalf. No computer skills are necessary for this option.
Participants' tax returns should be simple -- such as job compensation, social security and retirement 1099s. The maximum annual income without social security must be less than $86,000 to participate in this program.
Walk-ins seeking forms and answers to tax questions will be accommodated as time allows.
To make an appointment, citizens should call VITA at (541)-223-9597 or visit "joco-freetaxes.com."
