The IRS is spearheading a cross-functional campaign to promote March 21, 2009, as Super Saturday: Get Free Tax Help Today!   Super Saturday is a nationwide effort designated as a day to provide extra service to taxpayers, particularly those who are experiencing difficulties during these stressful economic times.  We want to attract taxpayers to the hundreds of venues, both in IRS offices, at partner sites across the country and online where they can get free tax assistance. 

• The IRS will provide an extra day of service to taxpayers on Saturday, March 21 at local IRS walk in sites called Taxpayer Assistance Centers. These offices will provide free services, including assistance with prior year returns. To find the locations of Taxpayer Assistance Centers please visit   http://www.irs.gov/localcontacts/  or call 1-800-829-1040.  

• Many of the Volunteer Free Tax Preparation Sites around the country will be open and may expand the hours of operation on Super Saturday. Please call 1-800-906-9887 or 211 to find a free local Volunteer Tax site.   

• The Free File Tax Software is available on www.irs.gov  where taxpayers can select a company from the Free File Alliance, a group of private sector tax software companies.  By answering simple questions, the software does all the math calculations and prepares the return for e-filing. This service is free for most taxpayers with adjusted gross incomes of $56,000 or less.
