Lakewood Offers Free City Tax Help

LAKEWOOD, OH — The City of Lakewood is offering residents free help with preparation of municipal tax forms. Residents can stop into the Municipal Income Tax Office, with no appointment necessary, and get help with their forms. Tax returns are due by April 17, 2018.

The Municipal Income Tax office is located at 12805 Detroit Avenue. Help will be available from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

However, since its tax season, the department is offering some extended hours to help residents that work until 5 p.m. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, from March 20 until April 17, the department will be open from 8 a.m. until 7 p.m.

The department will also be open on two Saturdays, April 7 and April 14, from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m. Trained auditors will be available to help residents during those times.

Residents also have the option to file their Lakewood Municipal Income Tax Return online, using the E-File Service. There is also a downloadable interactive individual tax form, which automatically calculates municipal taxes.
