Austin FCU is a Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) site for the 2026 tax filing season. The VITA program provides free income tax assistance to individuals and families with a household income of less than $69,000 a year.
Volunteers will be processing Tax Returns for 2023, 2024 and 2025 from 12noon to 4pm Monday through Friday beginning February 17, 2026. Note that in previous years we operated as a drop-off site. This will not be the case this year, so wait times may be slightly longer than last year.
What you need to bring:
- Social Security cards and/or ITIN cards for taxpayer, spouse and dependents listed on the return
- Photo ID for taxpayer and spouse (if married filing jointly)
- Birthdates for taxpayer, spouse and dependents
- All income statements: W-2, 1099, 1099-R, Social Security Benefit Statement and other income sources
- Tuition Statement (1098-T) and related expenses from college or techncial school
- Statement from Child Care Provider (includes total paid and tax ID number)
- Affordable Care Act Statements: Form 1095-A, B or C
