AARP Tax-Aide of South Lake Tahoe will once again be providing free tax preparation for California and Nevada taxpayers of all ages (NOT just seniors)! All tax preparers are annually certified by the IRS.
The free tax service will be offered at the South Lake Tahoe Recreation Center on Mondays and Thursdays from 10 AM to 2 PM, February 9 through April 13th. No appointments are available, and people are seen on a first-come, first-served basis.
Before coming in to have your taxes prepared, please pick up an information packet inside the Recreation Center main entrance, or inside the South Lake Tahoe Senior Center.
When you come to the Recreation Center to have your taxes prepared, remember to bring with you:
* photo ID for all adults
* Social Security/ITIN cards for everyone on the return
* bank routing number and account number for direct deposit
* ALL 2025 tax documents (if you have electronic documents, you must either provide a hard copy OR take a screenshot and have it available on your phone)
* your 2024 complete tax return
* completed Intake/Interview form from the information packet
If you have questions, please email [email protected] or call 530-542-3748 and leave a message.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
