Q. Do you provide tax advice? Can I find tax forms at the library?

Tax Forms

Western Libraries is open to the public. We do not have print copies of tax forms, but Bellingham Public Library does. You can find current forms on the IRS's US Tax Center. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, Western Libraries does not currently provide access to public computers or printing. Please check the availability and access to Bellingham Public Library and Whatcom County Library for computer access and printing. 

Tax Advice

We do not give tax advice.

However,  the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program offers tax assistance for those who qualify. Please check the VITA site for more information and updates. VITA is sponsored by Western’s Beta Alpha Psi and Accounting Society and provide free assistance with preparation of "non-business, personal income taxes during this period, including free e-filing of tax returns." Check their website for more information and to sign up for their services. 

The Whatcom Building Assets Coalition (WABC) has information on to WWU's VITA service as well as other tax preparation available at other locations.
