Garden Spot Village residents, volunteering with the IRS-sponsored Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, will offer free tax return preparation on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays through Thursday, April 11.
The national program, sponsored locally by the United Way of Lancaster County, is available to anyone who earned less than $62,000 in 2018. It was started by the Internal Revenue Service to help people comply with the federal law that compels every person who is eligible to file a tax return. United Way of Lancaster County supports 17 VITA locations around the county, including Garden Spot Village, located at 433 S. Kinzer Ave., New Holland. Garden Spot Village volunteers began offering tax assistance through VITA 16 years ago.
Duane Tice and Don Aldrich, Garden Spot Village residents, co-coordinate the VITA program at Garden Spot Village. To make an appointment, readers may call 717-355-6000.
