AARP to Offer Tax Prep Help Again

The AARP Foundation Tax-Aide Program will run from February to April 14, 2023. This is an IRS-supported FREE tax service that is offered on a non-discriminatory basis, although special attention is given to those with low or moderate incomes and/or aged 60 and older. Taxpayers do NOT have to be retired or a member of AARP.

There will be fewer Tax-Aide sites than in previous years due to a reduced number of volunteers. Appointments will be taken starting the first week of January 2023 except for Parma Powers, which will start Jan. 9, 2023. Availability of appointments is subject to the status of the Covid-19 pandemic. Therre will likely be both in-person and drop-off (necessitating a return visit to the site to finalize them) processes to prepare returns.
Please bring to your appointments copies of your federal and Ohio 2021 and 2020 returns; 2022 forms W-2, 1099, and 1098; social security cards or statements for all persons on your tax return; a picture ID (i.e., a valid driver’s license) for you and your spouse, and any IRS or Ohio tax correspondence.
