Free Tax Help At MCC

McHenry County College will host free tax assistance for those who qualify through April 14 (excluding March 25-April 1 spring break week).  Hours are 5:30-8:30 p.m. Wednesdays and 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays in Room A102 and A106 at the college, 8900 U.S. Highway 14, Crystal Lake.

The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Clinic prepares tax returns for individuals or households with incomes less than $50,000.

All tax forms will be provided. Participants should bring the following: valid photo ID for main taxpayer on tax return, Social Security cards or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) letters for all those reported on the tax return, all 2011 W2s and other income/expense documents, copy of last year’s tax return, if available, and bank account information for direct deposits.

Additional Services include opening up checking and savings accounts in order to get the direct deposit refund in 10 days and financial aid assistance. Trained staff will help individuals complete the FAFSA form with the completion of the tax return.
