First Test Of The New Year

The VITA (volunteer income tax assistance) test is passed.  It was hard!  Most of it consisted of questions where I was given all the info on someone and told to figure out their taxes.  I think I could probably still use some practice with the tax prep software, but the important thing is I passed, and I”m ready to go out and help people in the coummunity prepare their taxes.

How I Spent My Christmas Vacation

In the spring, I’m volunteering for the VITA program at the law school.  We help low income people file their income taxes.  To do it, I have to complete an IRS online training course.  I started it tonight.  It looks long.  At the end I have two chances to pass a certification test.  Hopefully I learn something about income tax from this.
