Beginning in February and continuing until the end of tax season, AARP Foundation is providing complimentary IRS certified tax preparation in Idaho through its Tax-Aide program. You do not need to be an AARP member to use this service.
On behalf of more than 180,000 members across the Gem state, and given the challenges of the past two years, I would like to applaud Governor Little’s fiscal success during what has been a challenging time. We are proud Idaho is leading by example and hopeful of the future priorities outlined in today’s State of the State address.
Members of AARP Idaho can participate in its annual lobby week, advocating for older residents and learning the legislative process. This year’s event is virtual, with activities from Monday, Jan. 31, through Friday, Feb. 4.
The holidays are a time for togetherness, celebration, and giving. Unfortunately, scammers take advantage of the season to give gifts to themselves, using your money to pay for it.
