Subject: SBT Fed/State Cut-Off for Return Submission

This will be the last year that Michigan will accept SBT Fed/State e-file returns via the IRS Modernized e-File (MeF) program. Michigan will continue to accept prior year SBT e-file returns through its Direct portal, as supported by your software. Michigan has identified a cut-off date for submitting SBT Fed/State returns which will allow sufficient time for resubmissions of rejected returns and retrieval of acknowledgments:

The last day to transmit a first time SBT Fed/State return for current and prior years will be December 15, 2008.

The last day to transmit a previously rejected SBT Fed/State return for current and prior years will be December 18, 2008.

SBT Fed/State returns that need to be filed after the above dates will need to be paper filed. This can be accomplished in two ways: 1) Mail to the address listed in the Single Business Tax Instruction Booklet, or 2) Fax to the Alternative Filing Office's attention at (517) 636-4378.

Thank you for your support of Michigan's SBT e-file program.
