What happens when VITA closes?

BobKamman

A recent TIGTA report has some data on what happened to the 1.7 million people who used a VITA site in 2019 to prepare their 2018 return. More than 90% of VITA sites closed in 2020. For their 2019 return:

–Half a million did their own tax return.

–Half a million went to a paid preparer.

–Half a million had still not filed by late October 2020.

I would like to help out, but I'm not sure if I have the time to squeeze in a half a million this year.
