Explanation:

The Grant for Tax Income is an effort to support the free tax preparation process for those not covered by numerous partner agencies. The grant is an internal revenue service.

The VITA program offers free tax aid to people who generally receive $54 000 or less, disabled persons, elderly or English speaking qualified citizens who need guidance in the filing of their own tax returns.

Whether basic or advanced certification test must be taken for volunteer returns. Remember that Basic and Advanced qualifications are independent; if you want to graduate in Advanced, it does not require a Basic test. For each qualification test, a minimum score of 80 percent is required.
