UMPI will once again serve as a Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) site. VITA offers tax free help to people who cannot afford paid professional assistance that are over 50 years old or whose income is less than $50,000 a year. Volunteers will help prepare basic tax returns for low-income tax payers. VITA assistance will be available in CC118 on the UMPI campus on Saturdays, now through April 6 from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. and UMPI students are also encouraged to take advantage of this service.
