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.
Is Interest earned on a First-Time Home Buyer Savings Account Deductible?
Yes, to the extent not deducted in determining AGI, interest earned in the tax year on an account is deductible. The account holder must submit with their MI-1040 income tax return account statements showing contributions and withdrawals made during that tax year, taxable interest or earnings on the account, and the Form 1099 issued by the financial institution for the account.
