Tax season is officially here, meaning you have the next couple months to get those returns filed! This year’s IRS deadline is April 18.

For nearly 20 years, Total Action for Progress (TAP) has used volunteers to prepare people’s taxes for free. Tax preparer volunteers are trained, but after adding new safety precautions, TAP realized it also need volunteers to perform temperature checks, health screenings and help with traffic flow at the entrance of the tax clinic. Before, the free tax clinic would help about 1,100 people a year, but that was with face-to-face appointments. For information on whether you qualify for this free tax clinic, click here. You are required to complete and pass an Ethics training prior to tax clinic opening.
