No, you are not required to file a Michigan return if salaries, wages and other employee compensation was your only Michigan income. To claim a refund of any Michigan withholding tax if you are a resident of a reciprocal state, you must file an MI-1040, Schedule 1, Schedule NR, and Schedule W.  (Reciprocal states: Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin)
