Appreciation for Our Free Tax Preparation Services

“I am a single mother of six. I feel that last year H&R Block prepared my taxes and I was charged almost $500. I felt like it was too much. That money could have gone towards a bill or my children. They gave me a card and charged me to spend my money that I worked very hard for. It is robbery. Thank you.”

“I can get my taxes completed correctly. I do not have to call the IRS phone line and be on hold. Therefore I have a plan to get my taxes completed in one day. The federal and state taxes are both filed as well. Thank you for this free, valuable service.”

“When Covid hit last year we were already tight on money, and we found they were doing taxes for free, and we needed all of our money back instead of having to pay somebody so much to have 15 minutes of their time to do our taxes. So we signed up for it, and it was super easy, super convenient. The appointment process was easy, and got here and the tax process was easier, so we looked into it to see if they had it again for this year.” -Barbie

“Because I'm facing an eviction because I got laid off and I couldn't afford to get my taxes prepared, thank goodness for this program.”

“This service is valuable to me because it provides me with a service that I don't have to worry about. I don't have money to pay to file my taxes and I don't have to worry about if my taxes are being done correctly.”

“I saved a lot of money and gained vital info on my taxes. I would strongly recommend this service to everyone.”

“This service is important to me because I have a limited income. It would be hard for me to afford a tax preparer.”

I decided to use it because it worked out so well for her [my mom] and she never had any problems, and she took me with her one day, and it was great! When I was getting a refund there was no cost, no fees. The people were always really nice and they were knowledgeable – if I had any questions, they answered them, so I just stayed with it. -Connie
