For most filers, the deadline for 2023 tax returns is Monday, April 15, 2024.

All branches of the North Olympic Library System take part in the IRS’ Tax Forms Outlet Program (TFOP), a program that offers tax products to the American public for free. The IRS sends tax forms to NOLS as they become available and they are dispersed to the Clallam Bay, Forks, Port Angeles, and Sequim branch libraries. For Tax Year 2023, the IRS is sending the forms listed below.

Form 1040 Book

U.S. Individual Income Tax Return

(Form 1040, Schedules 1-3, and Form 1040-SR)

Instructions

1040 Instructions

(Instructions for Form 1040, Schedules 1-3, and Form 1040-SR)

Form 1040 uses a “building block” approach, in which the tax return is reduced to a simple form. That form can be supplemented with additional schedules if needed. Taxpayers with straightforward tax situations would only need to file this 1040 form with no additional schedules.

All tax forms and instructions, in addition to extra help and tools, can be found online at www.irs.gov.

Forms and instructions can also be requested directly from the IRS to be delivered via U.S. Mail. More information about placing requests online or by telephone can be found at www.irs.gov/uac/Forms-and-Publications-by-U.S.-Mail.

More information about how to get ready for tax filing season can be found here.

AARP Foundation Tax-Aide

Tax-Aide volunteers are IRS-certified to prepare most basic tax returns, and are focused on helping low and middle-income taxpayers of all ages. You do not need to be a member of AARP, a senior citizen or a retiree to use this free service.

If you need assistance filing your taxes, AARP Tax-Aide volunteers will be available through April 15 to prepare and electronically file tax returns remotely, after an initial on-site intake at several sites in Clallam County.
