Tax Time 2025

Tax season begins January 2025 for tax year 2024. Everyone will use Form 1040 to file their taxes. Taxpayers age 65 or older have the option of using Form 1040-SR.

Forms and Publications

Print most forms and publications from IRS.gov. You may print these forms using the library's printing services.

Order print tax forms directly from the IRS. This is especially helpful for non-reproducible forms that cannot be printed from the website, such as W2s.

AARP Tax Aide Appointments

Free tax return preparation will be offered by AARP Tax-Aide volunteers this tax season. The service is a joint venture with the IRS to promote filing returns electronically and all returns that are able to be e-filed will be e-filed. This service is available to taxpayers with low and moderate income, with special attention to those ages 60 and over. AARP membership is not required.
