AARP Foundation is again providing free tax assistance and preparation for taxpayers with low to moderate income through the AARP Foundation Tax-Aide program. AARP Foundation Tax-Aide, in its 45th year, is the nation’s largest free tax assistance and preparation service, giving special attention those 60 and older.  You do not need to be a member of AARP or a retiree to use this free service.

“We know that service through Tax-Aide is vitally important to so many seniors in our city. In 2013, we helped more than 3,000 people with their tax returns. AARP volunteers are once again ready to assist even more people this year,” says Louis Davis, Jr., AARP DC State Director.

In 2013, AARP Foundation Tax-Aide’s 35,000 volunteers at nearly 6,000 sites provided 2.6 million people with free tax help nationwide. Taxpayers who used AARP Foundation Tax-Aide received $1.3 billion in income tax refunds and more than $244 million in Earned Income Tax Credits (EITCs).

Last year throughout the District, 68 AARP Foundation Tax-Aide volunteers helped more than 3,000 people file their federal and local tax returns.  For 2014, the program will be offered at ten sites throughout Washington, DC including libraries, senior centers and other convenient locations.
