Electronic Data Processing File Layout Instruction Guide
The Electronic Data Processing (EDP) File Layout for 2026 provides the formatting requirements for electronic garnishment files submitted to the Michigan Department of Treasury. The layout defines how header and detail records must be structured, including required field positions, record lengths, formatting rules, court information, and financial data.
Use the resources in this section to build and validate an EDP file before submitting electronic garnishments to Treasury. The requirements apply to fixed-width data files used as part of Treasury's electronic garnishment filing process.
