The AARP Foundation’s Tax-Aide program provides free tax assistance to low- and moderate-income taxpayers, with a special focus on those age 50 and older. IRS-certified volunteers help individuals understand and file their federal, state, and local tax returns. This service is offered at various locations nationwide, including senior centers, libraries, and other community sites.
This program plays a vital role in ensuring financial stability for older adults and other eligible individuals. By providing free tax preparation assistance, the program helps them maximize their refunds and avoid costly errors. It also empowers individuals to navigate the often-complex tax system with confidence. Founded in 1968, the program has grown to become a significant resource in communities across the country, reflecting the increasing need for accessible tax assistance.
