The College of Business is pleased to announce the return of Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA). Accounting majors provide free income tax preparation assistance for students and members of the community who could not otherwise afford the services of a CPA tax professional. This service has been offered at Michigan Tech for more than 20 years.
Assistance is being provided this year only by appointment via Google Calendar. Walk-in sessions are not available.
To schedule a 30-minute session, please visit the calendars listed below. Three appointments are available per hour. Please note: You may need to check all three calendars for an available spot on a desired date/time.
Appointments are held in the Tidwell Center Conference Room, AOB G010D. You should bring your W-2s, Form 1099s, Form 1098Ts, etc., to your sessions. Also bring a copy of last year’s tax return, if possible.
International students should first complete the federal Form 1040 using the Glacier Tax Prep software provided by the University, and then bring the completed federal forms to their appointment for assistance with state tax return preparation.
Appointments are available beginning today (March 22) through April 14 in 30-minute slots, during the following times:
- Tuesdays — 3:30 to 5 p.m.
- Wednesdays — 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
- Thursdays — noon to 2 p.m.
