AARP Foundation Tax-Aide

Serving Milwaukee County and Surrounding Areas

Welcome to the AARP Tax-Aide web site for the greater Milwaukee area. Here you will find valuable news, information and other resources. Forms and instructions, which previously could only be obtained by coming into one of our sites, are now available online and accessible 24 hours a day.

AARP Foundation Tax-Aide provides tax preparation help to low and moderate income taxpayers, with special attention to those 60 and older. We don't deny service to anyone based solely on age or income but do keep in mind that the demand for our services is greater than our resources. If you can afford to have your taxes done professionally, doing so allows us to provide service for more people who really can't. 

This service is provided at no cost to the taxpayer. All of our tax counselors are volunteers who are trained and certified by the IRS each year. Tips and gratuities are not permitted.

Our sites are generally open from Feb 1st to Apr 15th. For assistance at other times, contact your Local IRS Office here or the Wisconsin Department of Revenue office here

Prior to coming to one of our sites to have your taxes done, you must read the taxpayer instructions and fill out the necessary forms that we require. The instructions and forms are available at the tax sites but can also be found HERE.  Also, check our list of items that you need to bring with you & make sure that we can do your tax return by checking out the types of returns we cannot do.

Tax-Aide is Administered through the AARP Foundation in Cooperation with the IRS
