FAQ
  Service Fee/Pilot Housing
Why am I not allowed to use the 20% (standard amount) of my annual rent to calculate my Homestead Property Tax Credit if I live in Service Fee/Pilot (payment in lieu of taxes)Housing?
 
Answer:

A review of your Homestead Property Tax Credit determined that you resided in Service Fee/Pilot (payment in lieu of taxes)Housing.

Service Fee/Pilot Housing is a program where there is an agreement between a municipality and a rental property owner (private or public) to pay a service fee instead of property taxes.

The Michigan Income Tax Act requires you to use your service fee percentage instead of 20% of your rent when calculating the Homestead Property Tax Credit.
