It's Tax Time!

It’s Tax Time, and That Means it’s AARP Foundation Tax Aide Time Too!  

Free tax assistance and preparation for taxpayers with low- and moderate- incomes is available from AARP Foundation Tax-Aide from February 1 through April 15 this year.  AARP Foundation Tax-Aide is available to all Delawareans. 

AARP Tax-Aide volunteers, trained in cooperation with the Internal Revenue Service, will offer help with personal income tax returns at numerous locations throughout Delaware. Simply visit an AARP Foundation Tax-Aide site with your appropriate documents and have your taxes prepared with assistance from a fully-trained volunteer. It’s quick, it’s easy and it’s free of charge.

 “I really enjoy volunteering for AARP Foundation Tax-Aide.  The taxpayer is so appreciative of having this resource,” said Greg Alexander, AARP Foundation Tax-Aide State Coordinator.  “Filing for taxes can often be confusing.  Our volunteers can make the process of filling out tax returns a whole lot easier.”  Greg added that he has met many new people through volunteering.

 In Delaware last year, 110 AARP Foundation Tax-Aide volunteers helped more than 10,000 people file their federal, state and local tax returns.  The program is offered at approximately 58 E-File sites in the First State, including senior centers, libraries and other convenient locations.
