VITA sites offer free tax help to people who need assistance in preparing their own tax returns, including:

People who generally make $64,000 or less
Persons with disabilities; and
Limited English-speaking taxpayers
In addition to VITA, the TCE program offers free tax help, particularly for those who are 60 years of age and older, specializing in questions about pensions and retirement-related issues unique to seniors.

I don't think there's explicit legal/regulatory backing for these. SingleStop models it.

Would we include this in the computation tree in any form? E.g. should this be displayed in the web app when household information is entered?

Let's start with eligibility disconnected from the net income tree. Filed #4721 for the value, at which point we would connect it.
