(WRN) -You've now got less than a week to file your state and federal income taxes.The deadline to file state and federal income taxes is quickly approaching. State revenue secretary Peter Barca says e-filing your taxes is the way to go, if you haven't started yet.
"We have an e-file service that people can use to help you prepare your taxes, and of course there's all sorts of products like TurboTax and dozens of others that we've approved. We have those links on our website as well."
Barca says anyone who needs help to file can get it from a number of places, including his department.
"You know, last week we had 13-thousand phone calls alone, and so far, just this year, we've have over 150-thousand calls."
Barca says there's tax filing assistance available, especially for the state's elderly populations.
"We team up with the AARP and many other for elderly individuals for T C E sites, that's Tax Counselling for the Elderly, who will literally walkthrough and help you fill out that form."
The deadline to file your taxes is next Monday night at midnight. You can find links to e-filing services and state tax assistance online at Revenue dot W I dot G O V.
