Event Details

Free income tax assistance for Seniors and low-to-moderate income taxpayers will be available February, March and April of 2024.

Starting Monday, January 15th, you can make an appointment by calling the library at 920-459-3400, or in person at any library Service Desk.  Appointments are made on a first-come, first-served basis. You will then need to fill out forms required by Tax-Aide. (Intake/Interview & Quality Review form 13614-C and WI Tax Aide Information Sheet)  You are encouraged to pick these up ahead of time at the first floor Service Desk.  If that isn't possible, you should arrive at least 20 minutes prior to your appointment so that they can be completed.

Please note: If your taxes are complicated and will require more time than the one hour appointment allows, Tax-Aide asks that you not use this service so that it may better serve needier taxpayers.
