AARP Tax-Aide Program
AARP trained volunteers will be available for free and confidential tax preparation at four sites in our area: Clinton Town Hall (Mondays), Killingworth Congregational Church (Tuesdays), Westbrook Library (Wednesdays), and here at the Estuary on Fridays. New This Year - Appointments for the AARP Tax-Aide program will be available for scheduling starting on Friday, January 20. There are two ways to make an appointment:
1) Online at https://www.aarp.org/money/taxes/aarp_taxaide/locations.html and search for your local sites
OR
2) by calling 860-579-3192. (Please note that this is not the Estuary's phone number.) This number will be staffed on Mondays from 11am-2pm, Thursdays from 2-5pm, and Fridays from 9am-noon and from 2-5pm.

Please note that Tax-Aide volunteers cannot prepare returns for taxpayers who changed their state of primary residence during 2022 or for taxpayers who run a business with inventory, depreciation, or a loss. After you make an appointment and before that date, you need to pick up an envelope with the intake form, which is to be completed at home, prior to coming for your appointment. You can get your envelope at the site where your appointment is, except that in Killingworth, the envelopes will be at the front desk of the Killingworth Library, not the Congregational Church.
