2021 Site and Schedule Information:
Due to COVID-19, our 2021 tax preparation services are being provided at one location only (listed below). We offer drop-off services in our parking lot, by appointment only.
You can make a tax preparation appointment using our automated scheduling website. Please note that appointments are currently fully booked through February 27, 2021. To book an appointment for February 27th or later, check the booking link below, starting on February 21, 2021. This is when new appointments will open up for February 27th or later.
IMPORTANT: Our site may close for inclement weather (Snow, Rain or temperatures 26 degrees Farenheight or lower) without prior notice. If our site closes due to inclement weather, you will have to re-schedule using the automated scheduling website. We will not automatically reschedule your appointment.
Drop-off requires that you complete an intake form and questionnaire, then a DABC volunteer or staff member will review your tax documents with you. We will either prepare your return while you wait, or have you leave your tax documents with us for preparation. If you leave your documents with us, you will return on a specified date (1 to 2 weeks later) to review and sign your completed tax return.
