About fees
Your Lifelong Learning Institute membership gives you access to all of LLI classes and programs, most without any additional costs. There are some classes or programs, however, which require additional fees. Where there are additional fees, those fees must be paid to be registered. Fees can be paid by check or cash, or online. If paying by check, please clearly indicate the classes or programs being covered.

Course: LS121020
Tax Preparation Assistance
Instructor(s): Gary Ellenberger
This will be by appointment. You will be contacted to set your appointment once you have registered. This "class" is one-on-one assistance with the preparation and filing of your 2011 personal Federal and Virginia Tax Returns. Using popular tax preparation software, the instructor will assist you in answering the questions posed by the software's interview process. By the end of this one-on-one session, you will have completed Tax Returns ready to be mailed. Although the instructor has been involved in tax preparation for many years and has completed a tax course from the leading tax preparation company, he will not be acting as a Tax Preparation Professional. Instead, for legal reasons, he will assist you in the tax preparation process. This is a
self-help class (although the instructor will be entering the information and verifying the math). Since this is a free service, the "class" will be limited to only Personal (non-business) tax returns. In some cases, very complex personal returns may be referred to other tax services. Also, the instructor does not have access to on-line
filing facilities. Therefore, only printed and mailed returns will be available. Please bring all of your tax information to the appointment (2009 Tax Returns, W-2's, 1099's, 1098's, etc) We will set up individual appointments based on your registration.
