  • Low-to-moderate income individuals
  • Individuals with disabilities
  • Non-English speaking taxpayers
  • Military personnel
  • Senior individuals
  • Individuals who qualify for the homestead credit or the earned income credit


Bianca Martin speaks with Wisconsin Department of Revenue VITA-TCE Program Coordinator Juan Carlos Reyes to learn more.
