**All tax appointment time slots are now full. If you scheduled an appointment with us, please see below for important information.**

The AARP Foundation Tax-Aide program offers free tax preparation assistance. All preparers are IRS-certified volunteers.

Due to safety protocol, the total number of appointments available this year has been greatly reduced. Appointments will fill quickly and no guarantee can be made that the program will be able to accommodate you this year. It is strongly recommended that participants continue to look for outside help through paid accounting services, family or friends to ensure their taxes are filed appropriately.

AARP is also offering virtual preparation assistance. Check www.aarp.org for information on accessing the forms. You may also email taxaide@aarp.org or call 888-687-2277 for more information.
