Refer to Public Act 509 of 2012 and Public Act 1 of 2013 for additional details including, but not limited to the definitions for gasoline and diesel fuel under MCL 205.56a (11).

If you claimed an estimated sales tax prepayment credit on your December 1983 Sales, Use and Withholding Tax Return, you must repay that credit to Treasury using Fuel Advance Credit Repayment (Form 5084). Repayment of the total amount is due no later than the date you stop selling gasoline.
