Redwood City Offers Free Tax Preparation Services to Seniors
Redwood City, CA - January 15, 2006
- Don’t look now, but the tax season is fast approaching, and Redwood City wants to make it easier for seniors. Redwood City’s Veterans Memorial Senior Center and the American Association of Retired People (AARP) are sponsoring free tax preparation services for seniors, taking place each Wednesday from February 8 through April 12, 2006 at the Senior Center.
It’s part of AARP’s “TCE” program – Tax Counseling for the Elderly – providing free tax service to low and middle income seniors. This service is for typical tax situations. Tax preparation for businesses can be provided for those using Schedule CEZ only.
An appointment is necessary in order to take advantage of this free service for seniors. Please call 650-780-7264 to schedule an appointment, or for more information.
The Veterans Memorial Senior Center offers a variety of senior services, including a nutrition program, innovative classes, fun activities and exercises, social engagement, information and referral, and other healthy and stimulating senior activities for free or at a very low cost. The Center is operated by the Redwood City Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department, which provides recreational facilities and activities for all ages and interests, and supplies building and custodial services for City buildings.
Redwood City Parks operates the Fair Oaks Community Center, providing social, educational, and cultural activities, as well as information, referral, and counseling services to persons living in Redwood City and neighboring communities.
