Yorktown Library Offers Free Tax-Preparation Help

The John C. Hart Memorial Library will offer free tax-form-preparation assistance with preference for senior citizens starting February 7.

Certified volunteers from AARP will provide tax-preparation services on Mondays from February 7 to April 11 between 9:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. The tax-preparation sessions are by appointment only and the volunteers will not accept walk-ins.

As in 2021, no visit is required if patrons are able to scan their documents at home and email them to the volunteers. However, this season volunteers can also prepare tax return offsite if patrons come into the library one time for scanning documents and returning a week or two later for completing the process and picking up a copy of the finished return.

Same-day service is also possible so long as patrons meet with the volunteers for an intake interview in the morning, leave their documents with the volunteers for a few hours, and then return later in the day to finish the process.

Call 914-440-3086 to schedule an appointment.

The library also has federal tax forms and instruction booklets available. Library staff will print supplemental forms for anyone who wants to do their own taxes.
