Tax Day for individuals is Tuesday, April 18, 2023 for both Federal and State taxes.

The Library has placed orders for the Federal 1040 tax forms and instructions, but they have not arrived yet. Based on our experience in previous years, we should receive the forms some time in late January or early February.

The Connecticut Department of Revenue Services no longer sends tax booklets and instructions to libraries or any other bulk distribution sites. Tax forms for the state can be accessed online, see the DRS contact information below.
