It's tax time!

It’s that time we’ve all been waiting for (especially if we’re looking forward to a refund)- time to do our taxes. We have everything you need to get started at the Sacramento Public Library—free commonly-used forms and publications, reproducible forms and publications, and IRS and Franchise Tax Board reference books. Free forms are located in the lobby near the check-out area, and reference guides are located on the 2nd and 3rd floors. Hurry in while supplies last, or use the Internet to print California forms and federal IRS forms.

• You may qualify to file your taxes for free through the IRS website.
• You can file an amendment within 3 years of the original return.
