AARP Tax Assistance
With the tax season quickly approaching, seniors and
low-income residents can receive help through a FREE
service offered by AARP. AARP Tax-aide volunteers,
trained by the Internal Revenue Service and the Maryland
Comptroller’s
Office, assist taxpayers over 60 and those in low-income tax brackets file
Federal and State tax returns. AARP membership is not required.
Volunteers will be available on Wednesdays, February 3 through April 14 from 1 to 4 pm. at the Maryland City at Russett Branch. This drop-in service requires no registration and is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
