Free tax help still available

Local residents who still need their taxes done can sign up for free tax filing through United Way of Bartholomew County’s Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program.

The program offers free tax filings to Bartholomew County residents who make $64,000 or less, persons with disabilities, elderly and limited English-speaking taxpayers who need assistance preparing their own tax returns. IRS-certified volunteers provide confidential and secure basic income tax return preparation with electronic filing to qualified individuals.

Income tax assistance appointments will be conducted through mid-April at Nexus Park. Reservations for a tax appointment will be taken on a first-come, first serve basis and are still available.

Appointments can be made by calling 812-375-2216 anytime between 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Assistance is available by appointment only. Spanish speakers may make an appointment by calling Su Casa at 812-375-9370.
