Virtual VITA/TCE Taxpayer Consent (Japanese Version)
Form 14446 (ja) is the Japanese version of Form 14446, Virtual VITA/TCE Taxpayer Consent. The IRS made it for taxpayers who read Japanese and use Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) or Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) sites. Its Japanese title spells out both program names in brackets. The English edition is Form 14446.
The Japanese text says the form is needed when the intake/interview and/or quality review between the taxpayer and the VITA/TCE volunteer is not face to face. The site explains to the taxpayer the process used to prepare the return, and where it applies, volunteers tell the taxpayer about the risk of moving data from one site to another. The site completes Part I (第I部) and Part II, and the taxpayer completes Part III and signs.

Drop off site (預け置き会場), intake site (受け入れ会場), a preparation and/or quality review only site, combination site (複合会場), and the 100% virtual VITA/TCE process with contact that is not face to face.
Eleven numbered steps with guiding questions in brackets: scheduling, getting the consent, intake, checking photo ID, Social Security cards and ITINs, interview, preparation, contact, quality review, sharing, signing and e-filing.
The form says IRS employees pick free tax preparation sites at random for review, the site makes any needed fixes, and opting out of the review does not affect the services at the site.
Says federal law may not protect return information if the non-IRS virtual systems are hacked or breached without the site's knowledge, and that the sites are not always on federal property.
