JACKSON, MI – While many people continue to work from home, some who make up a portion of the city of Jackson’s tax base have a chance to relieve a bit of their tax burden.
Those who work for a Jackson company or business but don’t live in the city may be confused by a section of the city’s income tax form that calculates how many days they worked in the city to count toward the income tax.
“Working at home counts as a day in the city,” the J-1040 individual income tax form states on page 2. “Do not subtract out.”
