Volunteer: Tax Volunteers (January-April 2026)

Can you prepare your own taxes? You have what it takes to be a VITA volunteer in Kingsport or Sullivan County! 


The Kingsport VITA program is operating two sites this year.  Our first site is in the V.O. Dobbins Community Center located at 285 Louis Street in Kingsport.  We operate this site as a drop-off site.  We do intake by appointment on Mondays from 4:00PM to 7PM.  On Tuesdays from 9:00AM to around 3:00PM we prepare the income tax returns from the batch of drop-offs on Monday (we provide lunch on-site for the tax preparers).  Then on Thursday evening from 4:00PM to 7PM we review the completed tax returns with the clients.  At this site the greatest need is tax preparers, although if your people could help with the intake interviews, this could allow our tax preparers to work on tax returns during the intake sessions.

 

The second site is in the Sullivan County Public Library - Blountville Branch.  It is at 1655 Blountville Blvd. in Blountville, TN.  This is also a drop-off site format.  This location does Intake Interviews on Tuesday mornings from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM and on Friday afternoons from 4:00PM to 6:30PM.  They also do completed tax return reviews with the clients from the previous week during these same times.  Here, also, our greatest need is for tax preparers.  However we also have a need for and intake specialist on Tuesdays.
