Members of the UC Berkeley community can get tax help ahead of Tax Day, April 15, from the ASUC Student Legal Clinic, which operates a volunteer tax preparation service. The program is staffed entirely by undergraduates who are IRS-certified tax preparers. Tom Wang, a campus sophomore and caseworker at the clinic, says many of the clinic’s clients are students who are considered legal independents, which include international students and students above the age of 24. “The majority of (our clients) are (UC) Berkeley students, but you also get a lot of people that live in the area that see us,” Wang said. “Our service is advertised (on United Way Bay Area), another tax filing site, and people who see that come to us if they live nearby.” United Way Bay Area operates a free self-file tax software for low-income residents.
