You Could Lose Your Michigan Income Tax Refund
One thing perennial procrastinators know about taxes, is that you can file late without any penalty, as long as you have money coming back. Wait a minute. Not so with the State of Michigan.
Even though the State gave us an extra month to file this year, many still didn’t get it done. The state is offering help for those that owe, but also a caution for those who are pretty sure they have money coming back: “Taxpayers risk losing their state income tax refund if they don’t file a return within four years from the due date of the original return.”

LANSING The Michigan Department of Treasury is reminding taxpayers that state individual income tax returns are due in a week.
State individual income tax returns must be submitted electronically or sent through the U.S. Postal Service before midnight on Monday, May 17. For the convenience of taxpayers, the state’s individual income tax deadline is the same date set by the Internal Revenue Service.
“There is still time to file a return or make a payment,” State Treasurer Rachael Eubanks said. “Taxpayers who owe taxes should be sure to make their payments on time to avoid penalties and interest. I encourage those taxpayers who may be owed a refund to not wait to file their returns. Every dollar helps right now as we navigate these extraordinary times.”
