Background:
Although most of our partners have decided to suspend or cancel their free volunteer tax programs this year, many site coordinators and volunteers wish to continue serving their communities while ensuring the health and safety of their volunteers and clients. Additionally, the U.S. Department of the Treasury has announced the extension of the filing and payment deadline to July 15, 2020 (for tax year 2019 returns), extending the filing season by an additional 90 days.
Alternative Filing Fact Sheets:
In order to assist our partners with this effort, SPEC has created two fact sheets to provide general guidelines for partners who wish to continue offering free tax services to their communities:
- Publication 5408: Expanded Virtual VITA/TCE Process for the Remainder of 2020 Filing Season
- Publication 5410: FSA Remote Process for Partners
