Finally! The new tax forms are here!
You have no idea how we've been waiting for them to arrive. Well...I guess some of you have been waiting just as much as we have. This is undoubtedly the busiest place in town for the public to pick up their much-needed tax forms every year.
In fact, this morning at 9:30 we had a gentleman come in and ask where the AARP Tax Aide volunteers are. He was ready to have his taxes done! And it's not even time for the volunteers to be here.
Made me wonder how many other people out there already have their paperwork all together to have their taxes done. I'm almost there, but not quite.
Anyhow, we now have reproducible copies of Federal Tax Forms and Instructions.
We have the 1040, 1040A, 1040EZ, and Tax Instruction booklets, as well as most other forms, including the Georgia forms.
You have to remember now, these forms are for the public only. People who prepare taxes for others must obtain their own forms, but not through the library.
If you have any questions, you can call the library at 229-985-6540. Other forms needed can be pulled up on the magical Web. We'll be glad to help you in any way we can.

It's Tax Time And They're Here To Help
Yep, it's that time of the year again. I think I have all my papers together to bring to the library for the AARP Taxaide people to help me with.
They will be here starting next Tuesday, February 3rd, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and every Tuesday until April 14th, in the Willcoxon Auditorium. They come with their computers and stacks of papers and pencils, and they are prepared to help those, who meet the criteria, with their taxes.
Now, if you come before 9 a.m., you'll need to take a seat in the reading area and wait for the Taxaide helpers to finish setting up. Of course, the library doesn't open its outside doors until 8:30 a.m. and the Taxaide people don't open the auditorium doors until 9 a.m. So, bring your library card and, before you have your taxes done, check out a new book to read or a DVD to take home. And be prepared to be part of a long line of waiting tax payers.
This service is provided free by AARP at the Moultrie-Colquitt County Library. The library is the perfect place to provide the service, since it's in a convenient location in town and has the room for lots of people.
You know, AARP is a United States-based non-government organization (a special interest group). It was formerly the American Association of Retired Persons, but changed its name to just "AARP" (pronounced one letter at a time, A-A-R-P) because its focus had become broader than American retirees. It officially changed its name in 1999 and it no longer requires that members be retired.
The organization claims over 38 million members, making it one of the largest membership organizations for people age 50 and over in the United States, and membership is expected to grow significantly as baby boomers age.
Oh, and here's another thing that will be happening on Tuesday, February 10th, and Tuesday, February 17th, from 2 to 4 p.m., in the library reading area. Robin Tillman, Colquitt Regional Medical Center's Coporate Health Nurse, will be doing blood pressure checks. This is American Heart Month, and what better way to acknowledge your heart than to have your blood pressure checked.
Look at it this way...have your taxes done by AARP and then have your blood pressure checked by CRMC. And be glad we have those fine people here to help us with some of our most important concerns.
