The United Way of Central Jersey (UWCJ) needs you on its tax prep team for 2023!
Last season 113 volunteers participated in this critical asset-building engagement and prepared approximately 3,000 returns. The results - $2 million in refunds returned to taxpayers in the community in the form of refunds, with filing fee savings to taxpayers of over $325,000.
United Way of Central Jersey teams up with the IRS and community partners each year to provide free tax services through VITA. United Way and its collaborators are the leading providers of volunteer income tax assistance in Middlesex County.
"This service is aimed at low and moderate-income taxpayers," said Gloria Aftanski, President of United Way of Central Jersey.
