Finances 50+

Beginning in February and continuing until the end of tax season, AARP Foundation is providing complimentary tax preparation across Michigan through its Tax-Aide program.

AARP Foundation Tax-Aide services offers tax preparation and filing support to taxpayers over 50 in North Dakota and nationwide. Appointments are required and can be made beginning Jan. 27.

AARP strongly supports proposals that provide equitable, cost-effective, and targeted property tax relief to those most burdened by their property tax bills. More Pennsylvanians will receive help through the Commonwealth’s Property Tax Rent Rebate Program, which delivers relief for age and income eligible homeowners and renters.
