Free Tax Help at Baruch College
Baruch Accounting Students Will Prepare Your Taxes--Free
It's
tax time again, and more than 450 Baruch College students are ready to
prepare taxes, free of charge, for New Yorkers who need assistance with
their IRS filings. Now in its 17th year, the Baruch tax program has
helped thousands of New Yorkers, many of them elderly or immigrants
with limited English language skills, complete the filing process
painlessly.
Working through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance
program (VITA), the students have all been trained and certified by the
IRS. They are headquartered in Baruch College's Library and Technology
Building at 151 E. 25th Street, between Lexington and Third Avenues,
First Floor lobby and will be there to provide tax help through the New
York State filing deadline of Tuesday, April 15, 2008. Clients who have
questions about forms, documents, or filing procedures should email BaruchVITA.Service@gmail.com.
In
addition to the Baruch locations, students are staffing three other
sites: Chinatown, the Lower East Side, Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, and
Flushing, Queens. Services at all four locations are provided on a
walk-in, first-come, first-serve basis.
For more information, please visit http://www.baruchvita.org.

 QBQ! The Question Behind The Question: What to Really Ask Yourself to Eliminate Blame, Complaining and Procrastination
By John G. Miller
No
organization--or individual--can achieve goals, compete in the
marketplace, fulfill a vision or develop people and teams without
personal accountability. If we ask better questions about our own roles
and contributions, we can transform our lives and our organizations.
This
event is facilitated by Jeri Quinn, President of DrivingIR, and
co-sponsored by Gary Chipurnoi, Financial Services Professional of New
York Life.
