IRS Offers Free Special Saturday In-Person Help at Charleston IRS Taxpayer Assistance Center

The Internal Revenue Service announced that special Saturday hours will be available over the next few months at select Taxpayer Assistance Centers across the country. The special Saturday openings will take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on select Saturdays through the end of June.

The next event in South Carolina is scheduled for Saturday, March 28, in North Charleston.

The North Charleston Taxpayer Assistance Center is scheduled to be open on the following Saturdays to help South Carolina taxpayers:

• March 28

• April 11

• April 25

• May 30

• June 27

The North Charleston Taxpayer Assistance Center is located just off the Mark Clark Expressway (Interstate 526) at 4400 Leeds Ave. in North Charleston, SC 29405. To contact the North Charleston Taxpayer Assistance Center, call (843) 566-0209.

Offices in dozens of states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico will participate. The IRS encourages taxpayers to visit IRS.gov/SaturdayHours for a list of participating TAC locations and instructions to review before traveling to an office. During these Saturday hours, taxpayers can receive assistance with all services routinely offered at a TAC, except for making cash payments.

In addition to special Saturday hours, more than 200 IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers nationwide are extending their weekday hours to give taxpayers more time to get the help they need during the filing season. The extended office hours will run through Thursday, April 30. To see if a nearby TAC is offering extended hours, taxpayers can visit IRS.gov and use the Contact Your Local Office tool to access the TAC Locator. The site lists the services offered, including extended hours, and provides directions to each office.
