Tax Aide in Utah: Tis the Season!
|
From February 1 through April 15 each year, AARP Tax-Aide volunteers in Utah help prepare federal and state tax returns for middle and low-income taxpayers, with special attention given to people 60 and older. AARP Tax-Aide counselors receive comprehensive training and are certified by the Internal Revenue Service. These dedicated volunteers provide free one-on-one counseling, as well as assistance on the telephone and internet to help individuals prepare basic tax forms, including the 1040, 1040A, 1040EZ and other standard schedules. During the last tax season, AARP Tax-Aide counselors prepared more than 7,000 returns in Utah, helping taxpayers with their legal deductions and credits, resulting in tangible economic benefits to them.
In 2009 Tax Aide sites can be found in numerous locations from St. George to Tremonton.
