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.
