Back Taxes

We’ll be preparing initial returns for tax years 2022 through 2025 and amendments for tax years 2024 and 2025.  Appointments are available on certain Wednesdays each month. 

Here’s how the process works:

  • Step 2: OnTrack WNC staff will review your screening form and get back to you within 4 business days. If you are eligible, we will email you a link to schedule your appointment. If you are not eligible, we will email you to explain why and offer other resources.
  • Step 3: Schedule your own appointment using the link emailed to you. OnTrack WNC staff will mail you an in-depth questionnaire to complete as fully as possible before your scheduled appointment.
  • Step 4: Come to OnTrack WNC’s office at the date/time of your appointment and bring all required documents (they will be listed in the materials you receive with the in-depth questionnaire)
