ALVA, Okla. – Households with incomes of less than $72,000 can e-file their federal and state income taxes for free thanks to the library's partnership with the IRS
Alva Public Library is partnering with the Internal Revenue Services' Volunteer Income Tax Assistant (VITA) and Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) programs to offer free tax filing services to the community.
Households that had incomes of less than $72,000 in 2020 can visit the library's website and find out how to e-file both state and federal tax returns at no cost.
The IRS's VITA and TCE assistance programs have been helping individuals and families file their taxes for decades. This tax season, assistance will be offered online along with email support to keep both volunteer and taxpayer safe. To reach as many eligible taxpayers as possible, the IRS has recruited libraries to provide access to an IRS-approved free file service.
The IRS recognizes that more households than ever will qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) because of the shutdown, layoffs, and reduced working hours due to the pandemic. For many families, thanks to the EITC, any income tax refund may be the largest sum of money they see all year.
