LBCC Offers Free Tax Services and Additional Resources For Tax Help to Students

If you don’t already know, tax season is upon us, which means it’s time to file.

If you don’t know what that means or how to go about doing so, no need to worry, Linn-Benton Community College can help this year! LBCC is partnering with Single Stop USA and Tax Time Allies to provide free tax filing.

If your annual income is $66,000 or less you may qualify for free tax filing services, which you can do online at home or at the computer labs at LBCC. Be sure to have at the very least your Social Security number for anyone on your return, any W2 forms from all the jobs you’ve worked in the last year, any 1099 or 1098 forms, and any child care information you might have.

Using the Single Stop website at https://singlestoptax.org/selfprep will take you to a survey that will help you determine what you may qualify for when filing your taxes. Then it will redirect you based on your answers to the appropriate website for filing your taxes online, such as https://freefile.intuit.com/ (Turbo Tax).

If you need any additional help you can find it through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, which has IRS-certified volunteers who can help you prepare your tax return free of charge. LBCC does not have any certified people on campus, but you can find certified people to help you at:

Oregon State University, 2751 SW Jefferson Way, Volunteer Return Prepared, in Corvallis, 541-747-6119 by appointment.

And at the University of Oregon, 1208 University Of Oregon, 391C Anstett Hall, Volunteer Prepared in Eugene Saturdays from noon to 5:30 p.m.

And also at any of the locations and times listed on the schedule below. Also feel free to contact Jan Huskey at 541-971-5152 if you have any further questions.

LBCC Board of Education Meets to Decide The Next and Seventh President of The College

Students, faculty and staff alike filed into the LBCC boardroom with anticipation Tuesday night, as the college’s Board of Education was about to make history. A constant chirping filled the room, which sounded like the spring birds we’ve all been hearing in the last few weeks, but was merely feedback coming from the speakers of board members on the video conference call. Who would be the seventh president of LBCC? LBCC Board Chairman Jim Merryman’s face took up three screens at the start of the meeting at 6:30 p.m. sharp. “I am so pleased to announce that our choice for LBCC’s next president is Dr. Lisa Avery .” He went on, “Dr. Avery has a proven track record developing and maintaining key community partnerships, navigating the legislative landscape in Salem, and championing important diversity, inclusion and equity initiatives.” After Merryman had finished, he called for a motion to name Avery LBCC’s next president.
