Resources For San Jose, CA, RSVP Tax-Aide Volunteers
Training Resources
Home | Training | Support

These training resources were originally developed to supplement the printed resources and classroom training that are provided free to RSVP and AARP Tax Volunteers. They have been expanded to provide training for those who prefer to pursue a self-study program or who do not have access to the RSVP or AARP resources.

  • This training focuses only on selected forms and schedules for Federal Personal Income Tax Returns (see the "Getting Started" link).
  • After completing the suggested "Study Guides", individuals should be able to successfully pass the Test (see "Test" link) that is required before Volunteers can become certified to assist in preparing income tax returns.
  • It is suggested that you save the entire " Study Guides" module to your computer. Right click on the "Study Guides" link below and then select "Save Target As."
