With Tax Season underway, the Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) has an interactive map which outlines all of the spots around the City where New Yorker's can get help filing taxes. This map and these site locations are part of NYC Free Tax Prep, which encourages New Yorkers who earned $66,000 or less to file their taxes for free. Services include online filing and in-person filing with an IRS certified VITA/TCE volunteer preparer at more than 150 NYC Free Tax Prep sites. Click here to view the DCA map and get more information about filing sites and eligibility.
