Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA), an IRS program that uses certified and trained volunteers to help provide free and accurate tax preparation services to low- to moderate-income taxpayers, is available to Manatee residents through Step Up Suncoast, January 20 to April 10, 2024. 

Individuals or households who made $73,000 or less in 2023 are encouraged to visit a location (dates/hours vary).

See list of locations, dates and times, along with items needed in order to prepare your return.
