FREE TAX AIDE SERVICE
FREE TAX-AIDE SERVICE STARTS FEBRUARY 1st! You can have your tax return prepared and electronically filed at several TAX-AIDE sites on the North Olympic Peninsula. The service is free of charge, and available for low-and-middle-income taxpayers of ALL ages. An appointment is required at most sites. The volunteers are IRS-certified to prepare most basic tax returns, making sure the taxpayer receives all eligible deductions and credits. They do not prepare returns for taxpayers that have income from rental properties, or for taxpayers with complicated business returns. The AARP TAX-AIDE program is sponsored by the IRS and the AARP Foundation.
