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.
What should I do if the account number on my return is incorrect?
The Michigan Department of Treasury cannot add or make any changes to the account number after the return has been received.
- Notify your financial institution of the error.
- Your financial institution may catch the error and deposit it into your account.
- If the deposit goes into a valid account number as indicated on your return, but it is not your account, it is a matter for you and your financial institution to resolve.
- If your account number is incorrect and the financial institution has returned the deposit, a refund check will be mailed to you within 6 weeks after receipt of the returned direct deposit attempt.
