TAXES

 

It's tax time again. This year, the government is not mailing tax packages. If you need Tax guides, forms and publications they are available online. The Library's urban branches have a limited number of print forms available.

Various organizations will also provide tax help at many urban branches. Be sure to check the Events & Galleries section for Tax Help & Assistance for dates/times and locations.

With the correct instructions, the right forms and publications, preparing taxes has never been easier.
