Volunteers needed for Tax-Aide program

Thursday, December 1, 2011

The AARP Tax-Aide program is a community service developed by the AARP Foundation in conjunction with the Internal Revenue Service.

It provides free tax counseling, preparation and electronic filing services to senior citizens, as well as low- and middle-income taxpayers.

Local programs are seeking volunteers to staff locations in Greater Nashua to provide tax assistance services under the supervision of a local coordinator. Volunteers will receive about two weeks of in-classroom training in tax law, procedures for income tax return preparation and the use of Taxwise software beginning Jan. 3 at Daniel Webster College in Nashua. Volunteers are expected to provide tax assistance services at least once a week from Feb. 1-April 15.
