Free Tax Help and Tax Forms Available at Jefferson County Public Library
(Lakewood, Colo. - Jan. 27, 2011) Jefferson County Public Library (JCPL) will once again be offering free tax assistance to taxpayers this year. The Library offers numerous resources for those who need help navigating the often complex waters of filing a tax return.
JCPL has partnered with AARP to offer free counseling and preparation assistance to all taxpayers, with special attention to those ages 60 and older. From February through mid-April, IRS-certified volunteers will be at several library locations to help with any tax-related issues people may have. Reservations are not required, except at the Evergreen Library. Space is limited for this popular series, so you're encouraged to arrive early. Location, time and date information can be found at
http://jeffcolibrary.org/pdf/aarp.pdf.
Printed copies of state and federal tax forms and instruction books will be available at all JCPL locations while supplies last. JCPL is one of the few locations still offering hard copies of these forms.
Coming in March, the Library's Tax Talks program will feature a representative from a local tax service to share changes tax filers will need to know when preparing their 2010 tax returns. Location, time and date information can be found at
