2010 VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance) Clinic Information

Cope Family Center has once again partnered with the IRS and United Way of the Bay Area to offer FREE tax preparation and filing clinics in Napa County. If you earned under $52,000 in 2009 you may qualify for free tax preparation AND for the EITC (Earned Income Tax Credit), which could put up to $5,600 in your pocket!

Napa County residents can get free tax help from IRS-certified tax preparers. You'll get the refund you deserve and find out if you're qualified to get the EITC. Napa VITA clinic sites and dates:
