    Title: Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Greeter/

    Intake Specialist

    Employment Status: Volunteer

    The Connecticut Association for Human Services (CAHS) Volunteer Income Tax

    Assistance (VITA) Program is looking for volunteers offering FREE tax

    preparation services across various locations in New Haven, Bridgeport,

    Stratford, Norwalk, Stamford, Norwich, Danbury, Waterbury, Thomaston and more!

    Volunteer at YOUR own CONVENIENCE. We have opportunities that will fit your

    schedule accordingly whether you are a student, work full-time/part-time during

    the day or night, retired, or simply wanting to volunteer because the time

    permits and you want to find a way to give back to the community.

    You can build a new skill, learn tax laws, help your friends and

    family...and best of all, you will be giving back to the community of

    individuals and families who needs this service the most. You will become the

    VITAL part of VITA.

    Volunteering is ongoing from September/October 2024 through Mid-April 2025.

    Though Tax Season normally runs for 10 weeks from the end of January through

    mid-April. Volunteers are expected to begin training and complete

    certifications between September 2024 - January 2025. We provide FREE training

    and volunteers will be IRS certified!

    Each VITA Site operates differently, but overall there is a collaboration

    between the roles.

    GREETER/INTAKE SPECIALIST - Screen all customers requesting tax

    assistance, identify the type of return and tax schedules each taxpayer will

    need assistance with, and ensure they have all necessary

    information/documentation required to complete the return. In a virtual

    environment, a Greeter will perform the same duties remotely through our safe

    and secure portal with Get Your Refund. Reports to the Site Coordinator or VITA

    Program Manager.
