The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program (VITA), a program of the Barry County United Way, offers free tax help to households whose annual income is less than $60,000.  Their certified volunteer tax preparers are trusted experts who will file your taxes for free.

Amy VanZandt, VITA program coordinator, “We have been preparing for another great year and are excited to help our residents save the filing fee by utilizing this program. Last year, this program provided over a million dollars back to our residents through returns and the Home Heating Credit. ”

Appointments are now being scheduled by calling the Barry County United Way office at 269-945-4010. Locations are available in Hastings, Middleville, Delton and Nashville.

This program is in partnership with FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority).
