The Michigan Department of Treasury has been made aware that some "Reminder of Tax Due" letters sent to taxpayers contain an incorrect toll-free (1-800) TTY number, which may connect callers to a potential scam. Taxpayers with questions regarding unpaid individual income taxes are asked to contact the Treasury directly at 517-636-4486. We apologize for any confusion or concern this may have caused.
Corporate Tax Base 4. Are farms exempt under the CIT? Are agricultural activities taxed under the CIT? What about a taxpayer that has both retail and farm activities?
No, farms are not exempt under the CIT. Furthermore, the tax base attributable to the production of agricultural goods by a person whose primary activity is the production of agricultural goods is similarly not exempt. However, taxpayers under the CIT are limited to C corporations, insurance companies, financial institutions, and unitary business groups.
