AARP Foundation Tax-Aide provides in-person and virtual tax preparation services to anyone, free of charge, with a special focus on taxpayers who are over 50 and have low-to-moderate income. We are constantly monitoring the COVID positive rates in your community to decide if the service requires one of our virtual models of service.  Please understand that the service might be in one of the virtual formats listed below when you are making your appointment.

 

Are you ready? AARP Foundation Tax-Aide is still ready to give the same service to you. Our IRS-certified volunteers provide tax preparation help to anyone — and it’s completely free. You don’t have to be an AARP member.

 

The possible virtual service options (based on COVID positive rates in your community) include: 

 

• Low-Contact: Taxpayers interact with IRS-certified Tax-Aide volunteers in one or two short,

   in-person meetings to exchange documents.

• Contact-Free: Taxpayers interact with Tax-Aide’s IRS-certified tax counselors online or by

   phone and exchange documents electronically.

• Self-preparation: Tax-Aide provides taxpayers with free access to software so they can prepare

   their own taxes. Taxpayers can also request help from an IRS-certified counselor to coach

   them through the process.
