Volunteer with United Way's MyFreeTaxes program!

MyFreeTaxes Volunteer Program

Volunteer remotely with MyFreeTaxes and help people save hundreds of dollars in filing fees and receive thousands of dollars in tax refunds – all from your home!

MyFreeTaxes helps people file their taxes for free while getting the assistance they need. United Way provides MyFreeTaxes in partnership with the IRS’s Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program to help filers prepare their tax returns on their own or have their return prepared for them for free.

Each year, MyFreeTaxes helps hundreds of thousands of low- to moderate-income filers file for free and obtain nearly $300M in tax credits and saved fees, including their Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), stimulus payments and Child Tax Credit (CTC).

The IRS is the nation’s largest administrator of anti-poverty benefits for workers and families with children, and United Way's MyFreeTaxes program helps ensure people can access their benefits for free. Click here to learn more.
