Free tax preparation offered through PSU

Volunteers with Pittsburg State University’s Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program are getting their pencils ready once again this tax season.

The university is now offering its annual tax assistance program to those who qualify. The free tax preparation is available for PSU students, low- to moderate-income families, those over the age of 60, and to members of the military. In addition to the free preparation assistance, VITA also offers free electronic filing.

The tax preparation is performed by volunteers with the PSU Business & Technology Institute and the Department of Accounting. The VITA site is located on the 1st floor computer lab of Kelce Hall on the PSU campus.

Tax preparation times are as follows: Feb. 5, 12, 19, and 26 from 5-9 p.m.; March 2 from 1-5 p.m. and March 4, 11, and 25 from 5-9 p.m.; and April 1 and 8 from 5-9 p.m. and April 6, 13, and 15 from 1-5 p.m.
