Riding on the coattails of TurboTax’s Free Tax Question gimmick, the Virginia society for Certified Public Accountants have decided to throw their own version of this same shindig. 

Anyone who files federal or state tax returns in the Commonwealth of Virginia is offered free tax help and tax advice through the Tax Resource Center part of their website: http://www.financialfitness.org/.

The tax questions hotline will be open from January 31st to April 8th.  Unlike the TurboTax folks, they have their answer desk open during the times that people are actually likely to file their taxes.

I wonder what percentage of people actually file their taxes before January 31st.  I mean, most people don’t even get their W-2’s until sometime in February.  So, Virginian’s - someone’s got your back, and they’re not pulling any punches.  Head on over and get yourself some free tax advice.
