San Bernardino County offering free tax services for low income residents

San Bernardino County’s Transitional Assistance Department has partnered with the IRS to once again provide free tax preparation and e-filing services to eligible low- to moderate-income taxpayers.

Starting January 22, the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA)/Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) program will provide free services to eligible individuals and families whose combined household earned income was less than $64,000 in 2023.

“VITA ensures eligible taxpayers have access to the EITC and other federal and state credits that put money back into the pockets of San Bernardino County’s working families and individuals,” said Transitional Assistance Director Gilbert Ramos.

Federal and California state returns are prepared and e-filed by IRS-certified tax preparers. Day and evening appointments are available Monday through Friday, as well as Saturday appointments.
