 With tax season upon us, sailors may feel the stress of filing their taxes. Petty Officer Andreas Hernandez tells us about a program that can reduce that stress. The Volunteer Tax Assistance Program, or VITA, is teaching volunteers how to assist others in filing for tax returns. Although the VITA Center is a self-service center, it is still complicated to understand how to file your return. And that's why the Navy with the IRS provides volunteers that have knowledge enough to help you with your return. It's something you have to do every year. It's something that affects your life because you're being taxed on your income.
