AARP Foundation Tax-Aide: Offers free tax preparation assistance Feb. 1 through April 15. You don’t have to be an AARP member, and there’s no age requirement to get tax help from IRS-certified trained volunteers.  Check the Tax-Aide Site Locator for locations or call 888-227-7669 toll-free.

Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA):  IRS-certified VITA volunteers provide tax-preparation services to older Americans, low- and moderate-income filers, people with disabilities and those with limited English language skills. Generally, taxpayers must have an annual income below $55,000 to qualify. Call 800-906-9887 to find a nearby VITA site. Online assistance is also available.

IRS Free File:  About 70 percent of taxpayers are eligible to file federal tax returns online through IRS Free File, which connects single filers and families with annual income below $69,000 to free filing software from select partners like TaxAct and TurboTax. To browse options and confirm your eligibility, visit Free File Software Offers page.

IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers (TACs)

Help is also available at local IRS offices that host a Taxpayer Assistance Center. All TACs now operate by appointment; services may vary by office. Check the IRS site to find a location near you.
