Help your neighbors get the (tax) credit they deserve! We're looking for compassionate and friendly individuals to provide tax preparation assistance for anyone who cannot afford paid tax services. We'll provide the training and support to help you learn new skills, and you'll get a great feeling from helping those in need. Volunteers who assist with tax preparation will participate in a new volunteer training program that consists of roughly 12 all-day classes scheduled between mid-November 2019 and the end of January 2020. All volunteers who prepare taxes will also need to pass an IRS certification test in January 2020. Training for other volunteer roles will require significantly less time. During the tax season (February 1, 2020 through April 15, 2020), volunteers will be assigned to one or more tax preparation sites in Morris County to volunteer between 1 and 5 days per week, depending on volunteer availability. This is a great opportunity for anyone with an aptitude for math and numbers!
