I’s tax time, and that means it’s time to gather your tax documents and prepare your forms and send them to the IRS. For those of you who would rather someone else prepare your taxes for you, AARP Foundation Tax-Aide is available at 6,100 sites around the country in every state in the nation. Founded more than 40 years ago by volunteers, AARP Foundation Tax-Aide now has 35,000 volunteers, many of them retired teachers! Volunteers are trained by AARP Foundation Tax-Aide and certified by the IRS and have to pass a test to show their competence each year. If you or someone you know has a low to moderate income, no matter what age, you are invited to find a site near you at www.aarp.org/taxaide . Tax-Aide can even e-file your return, resulting in a quicker refund. The filing deadline this year is April 17.
