A Day of Remembrance

Today marks 15 years since a man flew a plane into the Echelon building in Austin, Texas. The attack killed Vernon Hunter, a former NTEU member, IRS collections manager and 20-year military veteran.

NTEU honors his memory and remembers those who were wounded and their families. We also honor the heroic actions of the IRS employees who brought their coworkers to safety on that tragic day.

Reminder: Eligible Members Can File Taxes for Free

As part of NTEU’s member benefits, you may be eligible to take advantage of free tax preparation software for federal and state returns and free electronic filing, as well as schedules. Through a partnership with Prepare + Prosper, eligible NTEU members have free access to TaxSlayer, a cloud-based service with unlimited email and phone support. For questions about your income, contact Prepare + Prosper at 651-262-2181 or DIYtaxes@prepareandprosper.org before starting your tax return. Learn more or get started.

As another option, qualified taxpayers in 25 states can use IRS Direct File to prepare and file federal income tax returns. Direct File does not offer state tax preparation or filing. Learn more.

These programs are available to taxpayers with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $84,000 or less.
