Back-to-school season means it's also time to think ahead to tax season! As kids head back to the classroom, it's a great time for parents to start thinking about the tax credits and benefits that may help your family at tax time.
These credits can make a meaningful difference when filing your tax return. WCMCA's VITA Tax Program provides free tax preparation services to eligible families and individuals. Take a few minutes to learn more about tax benefits for parents and students, and VITA sites near you by scanning the QR codes below.
