The SECURE 2.0 Act of 2022 introduced major updates to retirement savings, offering greater flexibility for individuals managing their 401(k) plans. These changes, effective in 2024, allow easier access to retirement funds for emergencies and adjust required minimum distribution (RMD) rules. While the updates are helpful, it’s important to weigh the long-term impact of these decisions on your financial future.

“In advance of Governor Whitmer’s State of the State Address this week, AARP Michigan urges state leaders to provide relief for the estimated 1.73 million Michiganders who provide care for a loved one. We understand their struggle. According to an AARP national study, family caregivers on average spend $7,242 annually of their own income on caregiving. To ease this significant burden, AARP calls for the establishment of a caregiving tax credit that would help lessen the personal financial strain experienced by Michigan family caregivers across our state.
