AARP Tax-Aide Foundation:

    AARP Tax-Aide is the nation’s largest free,
    volunteer-run tax assistance and preparation service
    available to taxpayers with low– and middle income,
    with special attention to those age 60 and older.  With
    over 32,000 AARP Tax-Aide volunteers, trained in
    cooperation with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS),
    now help over 2 million taxpayers file federal, state
    and local tax returns.

    Tax-Aide volunteers are trained and certified to
    assist filing tax forms and basic schedules, including
    1040, 1040A and 1040EZ.  Our volunteers offer face-
    to-face tax assistance operating in senior centers,
    libraries, community centers and other convenient
    locations.  We also visit hospitals, assistive living
    facilities, nursing homes and, if possible, make
    personal visits to those who are unable to leave their
    homes.

    Started in 1968 when four volunteers offered to help
    older taxpayers complete their tax returns, Tax-Aide
    is one of the early efforts of AARP to use volunteers
    to ensure that important services are available to
    older people.  Since 1980, the program has operated
    under a cooperative agreement with the Internal
    Revenue Service (IRS) as part of its Tax Counseling
    for the Elderly (TCE) program.  In 1996, AARP
    transferred the federal funds for and the
    administration of the AARP Tax-Aide program to the
    AARP Foundation

Utah AARP Tax-Aide
Providing Free Tax Assistance to Senior Citizens in Utah
    Utah AARP Tax-Aide:

    With over 100 volunteers, Utah AARP Tax-Aide
    operated in 42 sites throughout the state.  During
    the 2008 tax year we provided tax services to more
    than 7,000 taxpayers, filing over 14,000 state and
    federal tax returns.  Many of our volunteers are
    themselves Senior Citizens who take pride in
    serving their peers in this manner.  Our sites are
    located in various libraries, senior and community
    centers and are generally open one to two days per
    week.  Each site is equipped with computers
    increasing the accuracy of the return and enabling
    us to file both state and federal returns
    electronically.

    Our training is focused on the tax needs of low and
    middle income taxpayers with special emphasis on
    the unique needs of senior citizens however we
    serve everyone in our community.  While we receive
    support from the AARP Foundation, membership in
    AARP is not a requirement, either to benefit from
    our services or to participate as a volunteer.
