    The service is not limited to residents of Lauderdale County. People from surrounding counties are welcome. The service is offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Customers should bring their previous year (2011) tax return, along with their paperwork for 2012 and Social Security cards for all members of the family. Blank tax forms are not needed.
