Form 14446 (bn): Virtual VITA/TCE Taxpayer Consent, Bengali Version

Form 14446 (bn) is the Bengali version of Form 14446, Virtual VITA/TCE Taxpayer Consent. The three-page PDF is printed in Bengali for taxpayers at Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) and Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) sites who read Bengali. The IRS name in the header, the program acronyms, the method letters A to E and the page footers are in English. The English edition is Form 14446.

The Bengali text says the form is needed when the intake/interview and/or the quality review are not held in person between the taxpayer and the VITA/TCE volunteer, and that the site explains to the taxpayer the process used to prepare the return. The site fills in Part I and Part II. The taxpayer answers the questions in Part III and signs, and when spouses file jointly both sign.

The header is dated November 2023 and each footer prints Form 14446 (bn) (Rev. 11-2023). You can fill it out free in your browser on this page and download the result without an account.

What's on Form 14446 (bn)

Part I: site information

Site name, site address (street, city, state and ZIP code), site identification number (SIDN), site coordinator name, and the site contact's name and telephone number.

Virtual methods A to E

A drop off site, an intake site, a return preparation and/or quality review only site, a combination site, and the 100% virtual VITA/TCE process.

Part II: the site's process

Eleven numbered items, each with a guiding question: scheduling, consent, intake and securing documents, identity checks with photo ID and Social Security cards or ITIN letters, interview, preparation, contact, quality review, sharing, signing and e-filing.

Part III: accuracy review

The form says IRS employees select free tax preparation sites for review, the site corrects any errors found, and leaving your return out of the review does not cost you any service at the site.

Virtual consent disclosure

Says that if systems outside the IRS are used and are hacked or breached without your knowledge, federal law may not be able to stop further use of your tax information, and that sites may not be on federal property.

Signatures

A Yes or No on using the site's virtual VITA/TCE process, then printed name, date of birth, date, phone, email and an electronic or a typed or printed signature for the taxpayer and the spouse.
