Like working with numbers?
AARP Tax Volunteers interact with clients by filling out tax returns. Even if you don’t have accounting or tax preparation experience, becoming a Tax Volunteer may be right for you. AARP provides training in tax law procedures, preparing tax forms, and using tax preparation software.

Like working with people better than working with numbers?

An AARP Tax-Aide Greeter is the first person clients meet when they enter a tax site. Greeters make sure the client has all the necessary paperwork before meeting with a counselor, and they manage the flow of clients being served.

Have a knack for computers and technology?
Technology coordinators manage computer equipment, work to ensure taxpayer data security or provide technical assistance to volunteers at multiple sites on technology issues.

Love getting the word about community services?
Communications coordinators promote AARP Tax-Aide to potential clients from February to April and recruit volunteers in the fall for the following tax season. They may also seek in-kind donations or help raise funds for computer equipment and other materials to maintain and expand services in their communities.

Get the joy and satisfaction of helping out by joining the AARP Tax-Aide volunteer team today! Your expertise will be appreciated more than you can imagine. More than 34,600 volunteers across the country get the satisfaction of helping others in many ways.
