CCAV is the leading Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program on the South Plains and provides FREE income tax preparation and e-filing services for families of limited wealth. The VITA Program helps working individuals and families take advantage of all tax credits for which they qualify, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), Child Tax Credit (CTC), and education credits.
Last year in Lubbock, CCAV had over 120 community volunteers that contributed more than 2,670 hours of service, generating over $4.5 million dollars in tax refunds and helping more than 2,700 individuals and families receive free tax preparation services. Great volunteers are the key to our success. To join, please see the instructions below.
