Filing taxes can be stressful enough but paying to get them done can only add to that stress, especially for those living check to check. Davenport University is assisting low-income individuals and families who are in this situation by offering free tax filing services across West Michigan.
Davenport University students and faculty and a host of community volunteers are manning eight tax assistance centers in West Michigan this year, providing those who make $60,000 or less assistance with their 2022 tax returns. All volunteers are IRS-certified.
“This program is a win-win,” said Dr. Richard J. Pappas, president of Davenport University. “It’s an opportunity for our students to provide a valuable community service, and help our West Michigan neighbors earn their much-needed tax refunds and credits, while also learning valuable skills that align with their career goals.”
Many locations are appointment only. Visit taxhelp.davenport.edu or call 2-1-1 in Kent or Ottawa County to learn more and make an appointment.
