Ada area taxpayers can receive free income tax assistance from ONU business students through Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA), if your income is below $54,000.

The service is available from 5-9 p.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings at the business college.

Appointments are required and may be made by calling Prof. Dexter Woods at 419-772-2075
 
The VITA Program offers free tax help to low- to moderate-income (generally $54,000 and below) who cannot prepare tax returns on their own. As part of this program, ONU students receive training and become IRS-certified to help prepare basic and intermediate tax returns.
 
ONU students will offer free electronic filing (e-filing) services through April 6.
 
Taxpayers should bring proof of identification, tax information received for the 2016 filing year (including Forms W-2, Forms 1099, any Affordable Health Care Statements, and all other items marked “Important Tax Return Document/Information Enclosed”), and copies of last year’s federal and state tax returns
