InterServ offering tax preparation assistance for seniors in St. Joseph
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (News-Press NOW) -- Tax season officially kicked off Monday and one local organization will continue the tradition of helping senior citizens file taxes and refunds free of charge.
Interfaith Community Services Inc. (InterServ) will begin taking appointments on Monday, Feb. 2, for their Tax Counseling for the Elderly Program (TCE), which helps eligible seniors with their federal and state income tax forms.
Appointments for services provided by TCE will be conducted by trained volunteers on a Monday-Wednesday-Friday-Saturday rotation.
Last year, InterServ helped roughly 1,500 people with tax filing, resulting in more than $600,000 in rebates and refunds for eligible residents.
To make an appointment for TCE services, call 816-558-3240 during InterServ's regular business hours from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
The program will be held at the American Red Cross building at 401 N. 12th St.
