COLUMBUS, Ind. - The United Way of Bartholomew County reminds community members that sign-up is now available for free tax preparation through the "My Free Taxes" program.
Free tax filings are offered to qualified Bartholomew County residents who make $70,000 or less. IRS-certified volunteers provide confidential and secure basic income tax return preparation with electronic filing.
Income tax assistance appointments will be conducted through mid-April at the Doug Otto United Way Center. Reservations will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis.
Appointments can be made by calling the United We Help Line at 812-375-2216 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Last year, the Volunteer Tax Assistance program put more than $1M back into the local economy by securing tax refunds and saving residents their filing fees.
Individuals who want to file for free online tax help can go to myfreeaxes.com.
