Welcome! Locate the VITA location & service option that is most convenient for you:
Classic VITA: Classic VITA provides fully in-person tax preparation. Eligible taxpayers can visit a Classic VITA site in-person and receive tax preparation services on-site from a certified tax preparer that includes a quality review process before their tax return is finalized and filed. This process can take anywhere from 45 minutes to a couple of hours depending on how complicated the return is. Some Classic VITA sites require appointments, while others accept walk-ins, so it’s important to check before you go.
Leave & Retrieve VITA: At Leave & Retrieve VITA sites, taxpayers visit in person and undergo the Intake/Interview process, typically 20-30 minutes, before leaving all necessary documents needed to prepare the return. The taxpayer will then leave and certified tax preparers on-site will begin working on the tax return. The taxpayer will then need to comeback after a few hours or on a different day to participate in the quality review process and to retrieve their documents before the return can be finalized and filed.
Interested in 100% virtual? Through GetYourRefund, eligible taxpayers can securely upload all necessary tax documents from the comfort of their own home. Their tax return is then assigned through the secure customer portal to a certified tax preparer at a VITA site. Once the return is completed, taxpayers are contacted to complete the quality review process virtually or by phone before the return can be finalized and filed. Returns are usually completed within 7–10 days.
