Help Us Help Others. Volunteer with TCAN!
Tax Credit Alliance of Nebraska (TCAN) delivers free tax preparation and wrap-around services to individuals and families through a network of 31 sites across the state. TCAN is sponsored by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and is a project under the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Center on Children, Families, and the Law.
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) and Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) are volunteer-based IRS programs that support free tax preparation services for qualified individuals through partner organizations. All volunteers in the TCAN network are annually trained and IRS certified, ensuring preparers are knowledgeable about the latest changes and additions to the US tax code.
VITA sites provide free tax preparation for individuals and families with low-to-moderate income, individuals with disabilities, non-filing families with children, individuals who speak English as an additional language, students, and older adults.
TCE sites offer free tax preparation for individuals 60 or older. TCE sites are organized by the AARP Foundation Tax-Aide Nebraska, a nonprofit that provides in-person and virtual tax assistance to anyone, primarily focusing on taxpayers over 50 with low to moderate incomes.
