There are obviously many things that are different here from my country and that I have experienced for the first time in the U.S. I’ve learned that I am responsible to file taxes in the U.S. I have worked on campus and filed taxes before, but it is still confusing and complicated process for me.
I have a friend who is in Accounting major and she told me about SDSU’s Volunteer Income Tax Assistance. I went to their walk-in hour the other day and they helped me file taxes. They were very helpful! I was really glad that I could get help from somebody who is knowledgable about taxes. If you need help for filing taxes and want to see if you are eligible to use the SDSU’s VITA, visit http://vita.sdsu.edu/
