Make Tax Season Count — Volunteer with Nevada Free Taxes Coalition
Descripción
Descripción
Every year, thousands of hardworking Nevadans leave money on the table simply because they can’t afford to file their taxes. That’s where you come in.
The Nevada Free Taxes Coalition (NFTC) is a free, IRS-certified Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program serving low-to-moderate income individuals and families in the Las Vegas and Clark County area. We’re looking for community-minded volunteers to join us for the 2026 tax season (January through April).
What you’ll do
We have volunteer roles for every experience level:
Greeter — You’re often the first face clients see. You’ll welcome people, collect intake information, verify documents, and help clients feel at ease before they meet with a preparer. Great for volunteers who love people and want to make an immediate difference with no prior tax knowledge required.
Volunteer Tax Preparer — You’ll be trained and IRS-certified to prepare and file federal and state tax returns for clients at no cost to them. No prior tax experience required — just a willingness to learn and a commitment to accuracy. We provide all the training.
Reviewer — Experienced volunteers review completed returns before they’re filed, serving as a quality check for our clients. This role is ideal for those with prior tax preparation experience or returning VITA volunteers.
Site Coordinator — You’ll keep our free tax sites running smoothly, managing the flow of the day and supporting the whole volunteer team on-site. This role is ideal for organized, people-centered folks who love logistics.
What to expect
- Free IRS training and certification (provided before the season starts)
- A supportive team environment
- Flexible scheduling during tax season (January–April)
- The satisfaction of directly impacting your neighbors’ financial wellbeing
Who we’re looking for
You don’t need to be an accountant. You need to be detail-oriented, dependable, and passionate about economic opportunity in your community. Bilingual volunteers — especially Spanish speakers — are strongly encouraged to apply.
Why it matters
Our volunteers help working families claim thousands of dollars in refunds, including the Earned Income Tax Credit, that they’re fully entitled to. That money goes back into our community. Your time makes that happen.
