Free Tax Assistance at Oakland Libraries

Submitted by the Event Organizer

If you’re struggling getting your taxes done for 2010, the Oakland Library will come to the rescue. Through April 15th, trained volunteers will offer free tax assistance at several of the branch libraries.

Some branches (like the Main Library) offer walk-in appointments, but call the library to confirm schedules and make an appointment. Be to arrive early and  bring copies of your previous year’s tax returns and all items pertaining to your 2009 tax forms. Please note that seniors get priority
