Drop-Off and Go Appointment Process

Please review a list of all tax related documents we’ll need to prepare your tax return. Fill out all client forms. These can be completed digitally or by handwriting. If you do not have access to a printer, we can provide you with forms to fill out at your appointment. EBALDC’s VITA Team will be in contact with you about any necessary follow-up such as returning to sign and pick-up your completed tax return. For those with a working email address, you can inform us to sign off and receive your tax return by email to avoid a second visit to our tax site.

In-Person, Sit Down Appointment Process

Please review a list of all tax related documents we’ll need to prepare your tax return. Fill out all client forms ahead of time or in-person. You will sit with a tax preparer who will input your information. Then, your tax return will be checked by a Quality Reviewer. After, you will sign your tax return and be provided with a copy. We will file your tax return to the IRS within 48 hours.

Virtual Filing Process

Please review a list of all tax related documents we’ll need to prepare your tax return. Fill out all client forms. These can be completed digitally or by handwriting. Please do not skip this step, it will only delay completing your tax return. Scan or take clear legible pictures of all documents and forms. Upload your documents and forms to the Get Your Refund (GYR) virtual platform. Our VITA Team will complete your tax return in approximately one week. We will notify you by text and phone call. You can provide any questions or concerns on the GYR virtual platform.
