AARP Tax-Aide will be preparing income taxes again this year, but not in-person. Bugbee patrons will be able to pick up a Tax-Aide envelope at The Center which will contain necessary forms, including the yellow intake booklet. There will be some new forms and instructions.
Once you have filled out the intake booklet, the extra forms, and have all your tax documents in hand, the instructions in the envelope will contain a phone number for you to call to register to have your taxes prepared. After you are registered, a Tax-Aide volunteer will call or email you to arrange a time and place for you to drop-off your completed forms and all your tax documents in the Tax-Aide envelope. These will be scanned and your tax return will be prepared. Your forms will be quality reviewed by volunteers working from home using your scanned documents. Those volunteers will call or email you if they have questions or need more information, and to advise you of the status of your return.
Once the return is complete and you are satisfied with the result a volunteer will contact you about when and where to pick-up and sign your completed tax return. Tax appointments will start February 2, 2022. Please reach out to AARP if you have any questions about filling out your tax documents.
