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.
Can we accept a prior year energy draft for payment on a current account?
No, prior year drafts are no longer valid after December 15th of the year they are issued, however we do give the energy providers a 30-day grace period to submit the draft to the Michigan Department of Treasury for reimbursement only if the draft was received from the customer postmarked on or before December 15th.
