Tax Resources at the Library

tax paperwork

We have limited quantities of printed Federal and Oregon Forms, and Federal Instruction Booklets. This page will have more information about free tax help both virtually and in person as it becomes available.

For Tax Year 2023, you will still use the redesigned Form 1040, which has form 1040-SR for people ages 65 and older included. According to the IRS, many people will only need to file Form 1040 or 1040-SR and no schedules.

However, if your return is more complicated (for example you claim certain deductions or credits, or owe additional taxes) you will need to complete one or more of the new Form 1040 Schedules. 

See below for links to specific federal tax forms and to Oregon tax forms.
