Your library can print additional tax forms upon request for a fee. A double-sided sheet is two pages’ worth of printing.

Tax Preparation Assistance in York County

Need help figuring out what form to use? How to calculate deductions? Need someone to do your taxes? You may be able to get free or inexpensive tax filing assistance with the AARP Tax-Aide or Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) programs. Prior appointments required.

AARP Tax-Aide Program

Free tax preparation assistance is available through the AARP Tax-Aide Program. Appointments are open to all ages, but especially those aged 50+, from January 8, 2024. AARP membership is not required.

AARP Tax-Aide: What you need to know

Be sure to bring along a valid photo ID and proof of Social Security/ITIN number for anyone on the tax return, including dependents. If you want direct deposit of any refunds or payments, bring a voided bank check. Bringing last year’s tax return may help, also!

AARP Tax-Aide volunteers can prepare most personal income tax returns, including those with basic self-employment income. They are not trained to do business returns such as corporate, partnership, limited partnership, farm income, or rental income.

For questions about the Tax-Aide service, please email info@yorkaarptaxaide.com.
