If you have prepared personal income taxes in the past and are looking for a way to use these skills, consider volunteering.

Volunteers come from a variety of industries and range from retirees to university students. All levels and types of experience are welcome. Volunteers get a great deal of satisfaction from helping people prepare their taxes and get the refunds and credits they may not have known about.
