Sheldon, Iowa — If you’ve been putting off doing your taxes because you need some help, that help could be as close as Northwest Iowa Community College.
NCC is again working with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as a Volunteer Income Tax Assistance or “VITA” site. Students in the college’s Accounting and Administrative Secretarial programs are providing the assistance. NCC business instructor Janet Boone says it’s an official program of the Internal Revenue Service.
She says the $54,000 limit is per entity, so it could also be a married couple filing jointly with a combined income of less that $54,000 per year. She says all you have to do is call.
That number again is 712-324-5061, extension 272. She says the volunteers don’t just put all of your numbers in the right boxes, they answer questions as well.
She says they basically do the simple tax returns, but they will help where they can. She says there are certain documents you will need to provide, and they’ll help you know what you need too.
