The Program is the nation’s largest FREE, volunteer-run assistance and preparation service. The program is available to low-to-middle income taxpayers, with special attention to those aged 60 and older.
In Connecticut, AARP Tax-Aide volunteers helped 28,000 people file their taxes in 2009. Over 90% of the tax returns were filed electronically, assuring that residents received their tax refunds quickly. If you don’t have access to a computer or don’t feel comfortable doing your taxes yourself, let our trained volunteers do the work for you!
Don’t Miss Out on Valuable Tax Credits and Deductions This Year
AARP Tax-Aide volunteers are trained to help people with low and moderate incomes take advantage of the deductions and credits they are entitled to and save money.
As a result of the Federal Stimulus package passed last year by Congress, a number of new tax credits and exemptions are available this year for people who have bought new homes or cars, made certain energy-efficiency upgrades and more. Find out about that can help your bottom-line.
Though the Tax-Aide program serves people of all ages, the program gives special attention to people 60 and older. The service is free and all of our volunteers are trained and certified by the IRS every year.
