CLAY COUNTY – United Way RealSense tax sites are now open for free tax preparation services. Appointments are available to book online at unitedwaynefl.org/taxes or by dialing 2-1-1.

More than 15 locations offer this service to help Northeast Florida residents save money and build assets, including St. Catherine’s Catholic Church and St. Johns River State College, both in Orange Park.

RealSense, United Way of Northeast Florida’s financial well-being initiative, provides free tax preparation services to more than 8,000 taxpayers annually, helping individuals and families save money and get the refunds they’ve earned.

United Way of Northeast Florida, Internal Revenue Service, dozens of local partners and more than 100 community volunteers provide free tax preparation services for low-to-moderate income families and individuals, persons with disabilities and veterans.

This valuable service is available now through Tax Day on April 18. Appointment availability varies by tax site. As an alternative, taxpayers can self-file online anytime at myfreetaxes.org.

Through RealSense, United Way of Northeast Florida is helping families save money and build assets for the future. This includes ensuring that qualified families know they can claim the EITC (Earned Income Tax Credit), one of the nation’s most effective antipoverty strategies.

Together with our partners, we are supporting our neighbors, breaking the cycle of poverty, eliminating inequities, and giving every person a chance to do better than the generation before.
