To get help with the preparation of your unfiled tax returns, you have a few options depending on your income. If you earn a low to middle income, you may qualify for free help with tax return preparation. Otherwise, going to a qualified professional will be of great help for preparing your unfiled tax returns.
The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program was previously an independent organization that helped those with a low to middle income in the preparation of their tax returns free of charge. It has since joined forces with the IRS and its e-file system to provide a more efficient service (still free of charge). The IRS e-file system is a means of sending tax returns and other documents to the IRS online. The merger between the e-file system and VITA means that the VITA volunteers can now prepare tax returns and send them to the IRS electronically and directly, making it a quicker process.
If you have an income that exceeds the limit for help from the VITA program, you will not be able to use it to get help with your unfiled tax returns. You can, however, use a qualified tax professional to help with your unfiled tax returns (and the same applies for businesses, who also do not qualify for aid from the VITA program). You can even find a nationwide list of tax companies that are approved to use the IRS e-file system if you feel using it would be the most efficient way of getting your tax return prepared. You can search through this list to find local companies by entering all or part of your zip code (depending on how close you want the company to be; entering a partial zip code will cover a wider area).
