By Theresa Johnston, About.com

If you are looking for some free local help and advice on filling out your tax return this year, check out the AARP TAX-AIDE Site Schedule that is listed below. You can meet with volunteers who will offer advice and even prepare some of the routine tax forms for you. You do not have to be an AARP member or a senior citizen to take advantage of this service.

Tax-Aide volunteers trained and certified by the IRS will provide free income tax assistance at 14 sites throughout the Orange and Seminole County area starting February 2 through April 15, 2009.

Individuals seeking assistance should bring pertinent tax documents such as a copy of last year's income tax return; forms showing income earned, pensions and Social Security; 1099 Forms showing interest and dividends; current tax information package mailed to them by the IRS; Photo ID and Social Security cards for all those listed on their return.
