AARP Foundation Tax-Aide

Financial Assistance · New Jersey · Free

Free tax preparation help for taxpayers, especially those 50+. Operates February-April. Useful for older adults whose income dropped at retirement or after a spouse's death, and who don't know what they qualify for. Extra Help (Part D Low-Income Subsidy) can be applied for online at ssa.gov in under 15 minutes. SSDI back pay can be substantial — the application takes 3-5 months on average, but benefits date back to the disability onset. No cost to older adults or the people helping them.
