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.
Charitable contribution deductions from Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) are $300 for 2020 (single/joint) or the $300 (single) and $600 (joint) for 2021. Are these deductions from AGI in 2020 and 2021 also deductions for total household resources?
For tax year 2020 the charitable cash contribution is a deduction from adjusted gross income and therefore Total Household Resources as well.
For tax year 2021 the charitable cash contribution is not a deduction from adjusted gross income and therefore would not be a deduction from Total Household Resources.
