The dreaded April 15 tax deadline is just days away and the IRS says that some of its assistance centers (TAC) will be open this Saturday and next for anyone needing help. Gainesville’s will not but two in Atlanta will be: 401 W. Peachtree St. NW, (Summit Building) and 2888 Woodcock Blvd. But it’s advised that you still call ahead just to confirm. The hours of operation these two days will be 9:00-4:00.
The IRS encourages taxpayers to visit IRS.gov/SaturdayHours to review participating locations and available services before traveling to an office. The IRS will continue to offer these special events through June.
Taxpayers can receive help with most services routinely offered at a TAC. Cash payments, however, are not accepted. In addition to special Saturday hours, over 200 IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers nationwide continue to offer extended weekday office hours. The extended
office hours will run through Thursday, April 30.
To see if a nearby TAC is offering extended hours, taxpayers can visit IRS.gov and use the Contact Your Local Office tool to access the TAC Locator. The site lists the services offered, including extended hours, and provides directions to each office.
