How to get help for your taxes if you enroll in Medicare
- Taxpayer Assistance Centers (TACs): Taxpayer assistance centers have volunteers who can help answer your questions.
- Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE): TCE centers offer free tax preparation. You can contact them with the IRS locator.
- Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA): If you can’t find a Tax Counseling for the elderly center around you, you can check for a VITA. VITA also helps with free tax preparation.
Conclusion
