Newark Free Tax Prep is an initiative under the Newark Asset Building Coalition (NABC) that provides free tax prep services through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program (VITA) sponsored by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Through the Newark Free Tax Program, we offer free tax help to people with $66,000 or less taxable income on their tax return. Newark Free Tax Prep has been crucial in helping hard-working families in Newark take advantage of all of the tax credits they are eligible for including the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), Child Tax Credit (CTC), and education credits.
Through the Newark Free Tax Prep program, tax returns are prepared by trained and certified volunteers. Your tax information is only used in preparation of your tax return.
