AARP is urging state lawmakers to expand Michigan’s Homestead Property Tax Credit. The credit, which was claimed by 27 percent of all Michigan households in 2023, provides a state-tax refund for qualifying homeowners based on factors such as household income and a home’s taxable value. Renters can claim the credit, too, on the assumption that a portion of property tax is passed on to them in rent.

Lansing, Mich.—The vast majority of Michigan small business owners and decision-makers say more should be done to support Michigan workers saving for retirement, according to a new AARP small business survey.

AARP is working with the Food Bank Council of Michigan and other organizations to help bridge the resulting gaps through legislation and community outreach.

How to protect yourself and recover from preparer fraud and identity theft
In the early 1900s, the Greenwood neighborhood of Tulsa, Oklahoma, now called "Black Wall Street," was a vibrant and prosperous community. Despite the challenges and racial injustices they faced, residents of this community built a thriving neighborhood filled with successful Black-owned businesses, attorneys, doctors, and real estate agents. Their achievements were nothing short of remarkable and served as a beacon of hope for Black Americans nationwide.
According to federal data, identity theft in 2022 became the most prevalent form of fraud reported in Michigan, replacing impostor scams.
