Scammers are contacting taxpayers while pretending to be from the Michigan Department of Treasury, using out‑of‑state phone numbers. They may request payments or attempt to trick you into providing your bank account information. Always verify the source before sharing any personal or financial details.
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.
