SBPAL's role is to host VITA, we do not prepare any of the taxes. If you have any questions or would like to view the most current VITA schedule, please contact United Way directly at www.unitedwaysb.org
Due to COVID-19 and for the safety of our volunteers, staff and community, VITA will be operating remotely. Taxpayers can drop off their tax information at secure drop-off locations during designated times. Tax forms will not be received by anyone other than VITA volunteers and staff. SBPAL cannot answer any tax questions or receive documents.

Once tax payer information is received, a VITA volunteer will schedule a time with the taxpayer to review documents and begin the tax return before submitting to the IRS.
