FAQ
  Individual Income Tax
What are the State of Michigan income tax filing requirements? What forms do we use? When should they be filed?
 
Answer:
If you file a federal income tax return, you should also file a Michigan income tax return. You are required to file a Michigan income tax return if the federal adjusted gross income (AGI) is greater than the personal exemption amount on the Michigan income tax return (MI-1040).

Michigan has one income tax form, MI-1040. The MI-1040 is used for any filer, residents, nonresidents and part-year residents. The MI-1040 is also used when a federal EZ is filed, the MI-1040EZ is no longer available.
