OLE Health staff trained to provide no-cost tax preparation assistance for patients.
OLE Health is hosting the IRS sponsored Volunteer Income Tax Assistance(VITA) program which offers free tax help to people who make approximately $54,000 or less and need assistance in preparing their own tax returns for tax year 2015. The VITA program is an effort to save OLE Health patients the tax return filing costs while informing them of IRS tax law.
Over the course of three days, a group of OLE employees were trained in standards of conduct, tax law, and interview skills to assess if OLE patients are eligible to attain free tax services. OLE Health is proud of the VITA tax volunteers prepared to assist members of the OLE community. The 2016 tax team consists of Ana Mendoza, Clare Szalay, Lucia Martinez, Jennica Ramos, Olga Martinez, Alejandro Torres, Juan Torres, Kareem Raad and David Avina. All volunteers are protected by the federal Volunteer Protection Act of 1997 by following all VITA standards of conduct.
OLE Health continues to support it’s vision to provide patients with “the range of services they need, when and where they need them.”
