See the flyer to the right for the VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance) program that is offered at the Rossville Community Library. This year the Rossville location will be in person the first Saturday of February, March and April from 9 to 3, no appointment necessary. Rossville is also a drop off location for taxes too, a packet of information to be completed is available at the library. The packet is returned by April 1, a VITA volunteer will call them to complete the tax return and then e file it and mail a return copy to them. This process was used the last two years and worked well too. It is designed for people with low to moderate income.
