Who qualifies for a homestead property tax credit?

You may qualify for a homestead property tax credit if all of the following apply:

• You own or were contracted to pay rent and occupied a Michigan homestead for at least 6 months during the year on which property taxes and/or service fees were levied
• If you own your home, your taxable value was $136,600 or less
• Your total household resources were $60,600 or less. Part-year residents must annualize total household resources to determine if
  the credit reduction applies.
• If 100% of your total household resources were received from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, you do not
  qualify
