Volunteer Income Tax Assistance
United Way’s Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program completed operations in mid-April of this year. Our volunteers are enjoying time away from tax prep, but our staff are still available to help as their schedules permit. Let us know what kind of assistance you’re looking for, and we’ll follow up and let you know if/when we can help.
If you have questions email kmiles@uwmontgomery.org or call 765-362-5484.
