VITA Tax program offers free tax preparation at select Goodwill locations
Doing taxes for many is that task put off week-after-week until tax day sends everyone scrambling last-minute to get their taxes completed.
Seattle Goodwill has a stress-free solution.
Thanks to a partnership with United Way, anyone who make less than $66,000 per year is eligible for VITA Tax, a free tax preparation service that will be available at several of our Job Training and Education center locations.
Once you get your W-2 form, here is what you need to bring in:
- Social security card or ITIN and birthdates of everyone listed on the return
- Photo ID
- All tax statements (W-2, 1099 forms, SSA-1099 forms, mortgage and other interest forms)
- Health Insurance Form 1095-A
- Bank account number and routing number
- A copy of last year’s tax return
- Documentation of child care and medical expenses
- Documentation of any charitable contributions
- Any form that says “Do not throw away, Tax Document.”
