Free Tax Prep Service Delayed One Week
Due to recent changes in tax laws, the free tax preparation
service offered by Lee University will not begin until Feb. 1,
2013.
While the IRS worked to anticipate the change, the law required
that the IRS update forms and instructions as well as make critical
processing system adjustments before it can begin accepting tax
returns.
Beginning Feb. 1, 2013, the Lee University Department of
Business will partner with the Internal Revenue Service’s Volunteer
Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program to offer free tax preparation
every Friday and Saturday in the Walker Memorial Building.
IRS certified junior and senior accounting students will provide
assistance at the Walker Memorial Building in Room 108 from
2:30-5:30 p.m. on Fridays and 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Saturdays. The
last day of filing tax returns through VITA at Lee is Saturday,
April 13.
In its sixth year, the VITA program at Lee is a tax return
preparation service for any taxpayer whose maximum gross annual
income does not exceed $50,000.
For additional information, please contact Mr. Greg Della Franco
at 423-614-8667 or e-mail him at
