Taxes with AARP

March 11, 2026

Tax season can be stressful for anyone, but for many older adults living on fixed incomes, getting taxes done correctly, and getting every refund they’re entitled to, can make a real difference. That’s where AARP Foundation’s Tax-Aide program comes in. It’s the nation’s largest free, volunteer-based tax preparation service, helping millions of people file their returns each year at no cost.

Joining us now to talk more about the program and how residents can take advantage of it is Chris Widelo, State Director of AARP New Jersey. Chris, thanks so much for being with us.
