Free Tax Preparation Services Now Available for Our Community through Partnership with VITA Latino



At EMBRACE ALL LATINO VOICES, we are thrilled to announce an exciting new partnership with VITA Latino to provide free tax preparation services to our community members. This service will be available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, ensuring everyone in our community has access to expert tax support in their preferred language.


What is VITA?

The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, managed by the IRS and operated through trusted community partners, has been helping individuals for over 50 years. This program offers free tax preparation services to those who qualify, including:

  • Individuals earning $57,000 or less annually;

  • People with a Social Security Number or ITIN (W7);

  • Community members with limited English proficiency.


VITA-certified volunteers are rigorously trained and tested by the IRS to ensure high-quality, accurate, and confidential tax preparation services. Each tax return undergoes a thorough quality review before submission, giving participants peace of mind that their taxes are filed correctly.


Free Tax Preparation Days

As part of our partnership with VITA Latino, EMBRACE ALL LATINO VOICES will host tax preparation services on:

  • March 5th, 2025

  • March 27th, 2025


We will accommodate 15 appointments per day, and scheduling is required to receive services.

To schedule your appointment, please call: 704-369-4145


Additional Financial Literacy Training

In addition to free tax preparation, we will provide Financial Literacy Training to our community members at no cost. These sessions will empower participants with tools to manage finances, save for the future, and build financial stability.


Why Filing Taxes is Important for Immigrants

Filing taxes offers many benefits, even for undocumented individuals. It allows immigrants to:

  • Establish a financial record, supporting applications for residency or work permits.

  • Demonstrate commitment to contributing to their local communities.

  • Access important tax credits, such as the Child Tax Credit, which can provide financial relief for families.

  • Maintain a positive relationship with the IRS and avoid potential penalties.

By partnering with VITA Latino, EMBRACE ALL LATINO VOICES is proud to support our community in accessing these essential services.
