Each year, the library offers free simple income tax filing. We have begun this year’s clinic for 2022 tax filing.
Please drop by the library anytime with your tax return forms (T-slips) and valid ID. Please be prepared to complete a quick form so we have your basic information. Then our tax volunteer will keep in touch over the phone and let you know when it has been filed.
