Long Branch — It’s that time of year again, and once again the Long Branch library is offering free assistance to those preparing their tax returns. From now until April 15, the library will host free tax preparation by certified tax volunteers.
This service is first come, first served, so please arrive early and sign in at the Adult Services desk. Come prepared with all the necessary information to ensure you receive the best, and quickest, service possible.
You do not need to be a Long Branch resident to use this service.

You may also need this additional information: total medical expenses last year, total spent on college tuition, total spent on childcare (the name and Tax ID number of the provider), total alimony, and any charitable donations.
Making photocopies for your records will cost 10 cents per page. The 1040 is a two-sided document; to copy both sides will cost 20 cents.
