Thank you for choosing the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program for your tax preparation!
Do you still need taxes prepared? Email the VITA Program Coordinator at andrew@unitedwaygcr.org for more info on drop-off and virtual options.
You can also email Professor Mary O'Keeffe, Union College VITA site coordinator, if you prefer a dropoff tax service in downtown Schenectady: unionvita@gmail.com.
We can prepare tax returns and amendments from 2018-2023. We cannot prepare returns that have the following:
-Rental income
-Self-employment income from selling inventory*
-Debt discharged due to bankruptcy
-Other qualifications may apply
*If you know the valuation of your beginning-of-the-year inventory and inventory sold during the year, we may still be able to prepare the return.
Please visit here for a list of tax documents to have ready.
