Free VITA Tax Preparation and e-Filing service available to taxpayers

The Free VITA Tax Preparation and e-Filing services will soon be available on Pensacola State College campuses.

In existence for more than 10 years, the program provides free tax services to working families and individuals who earn less than $66,000 a year. Residents can receive quality service from IRS-trained tax preparers and have two filing options – online or in-person.

Book an Appointment

VITA volunteers will be doing taxes by appointment only.

Tax filers should bring proof of identity (driver’s license or passport); Social Security cards for taxpayer, spouse and all dependents; all W2s, 1095, 1098 and 1099 forms; childcare provider’s identification number; taxpayer’s banking information or a valid mailing address; estimated tax payments; amounts of other income; and last year’s tax return, if applicable.

All volunteers are certified by the Internal Revenue Services. The services are part of the United Way of Escambia County’s financial stability program ─ which has helped thousands of residents file their income tax returns.
