The VITA program is a free tax preparation service for local Santa Barbara County residents who make $67,000 or less a year. Tax returns are prepared and electronically filed by IRS-certified volunteers for qualified individuals or families. Tax preparation is available year-round. Our tax preparer can assist with general tax information, tax preparation, and filing, along with ITIN applications and renewals.
VITA Sites open February 2, 2024. All sites are walk-in only unless otherwise noted. Volunteers stop taking new clients an hour before closing time.
