    Do you want to make a difference in New Yorkers’ lives?

    NYC Free Tax Prep offers trusted, professional filing at no cost for thousands of New Yorkers every year. Since 2015, volunteers like you have completed over 1 million tax returns and helped New Yorkers save $1.4 billion in estimated tax preparer fees. This is a short-term commitment that makes a big difference.
