ALBANY, GA (WALB) -

The SOWEGA Council on Aging wants to help you file your taxes.

The group is offering free tax counseling and preparation with E-filing to moderate and low-income taxpayers with special attention to people over 60.

The program started Monday and runs through April 15th

Volunteers encourage people to take advantage of the opportunity.

"If you go to a paid preparer, it's going to cost you money and if you're in the low income bracket then you don't need to be spending it. That's the benefit we see," said volunteer Laura McKinney.

Returns will be prepared on Mondays and Tuesdays.

You need an appointment. To setup an appointment, call (229) 432-1131.
