TAX RESOURCES 2021

The Coburn Free Library is here to help make this tax season a little less stressful! 

We have created this resource guide to help make filing easier.

To request tax forms be mailed directly to your home, call 607-654-7566.  The Office of Congressman Tom Reed has graciously offered to provide tax forms to our service area.  Call his office and provide your name, mailing address, specific forms, and the quantities of forms you will need.  The forms will be ordered directly from the IRS.gov website and mailed straight to your home.  Please allow 10-15 business days for delivery.
