Students offering free
tax preparation
IRS-certified accounting students from
the School of Management are once
again providing free tax preparation
services to individuals and families
with annual income of $69,000 or less.
Area residents and students are
encouraged to take advantage of this
opportunity, which, by IRS estimates,
can save taxpayers anywhere from
$100 to $300 in preparation fees.
Free tax preparation is available
on the following dates at UB's South
Campus, 100 Allen Hall (3485 Main St.)
in Buffalo from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
on a first-come, first-served basis only.
Wait times may vary.
Remaining dates:
• March 1, 7, 8, 14, 15, 28 and 29
• April 4 and 5
To view a list of what to bring,
maps, directions and frequently asked
questions, visit management.buffalo.edu/
freetaxprep.
For more than 20 years, the award-
winning, student-run tax service has
been provided by the IRS-sponsored
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance
program with volunteers from the UB
chapter of Beta Alpha Psi, an interna-
tional honors organization for account-
ing and finance students, and the UB
Accounting Association. Cumulatively,
School of Management students have
brought nearly $14 million in refunds
back into the region since 2008 by
preparing more than 11,200 tax returns.
For additional questions, send an
email to mgt-freetaxprep@buffalo.edu
and a student volunteer will reply
within two business days.
