List of Certified Community Foundations for Tax Year 2016 - Michigan Business Tax Credit
Approved: April 5, 2017
RAB 2017-5. This bulletin lists the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the community foundations certified by the Department of Treasury for tax year 2016 in accordance with Section 1425 of the Michigan Business Tax Act (MBTA). Qualifying business taxpayers that elect to file returns under the MBTA for tax year 2016 instead of under the Income Tax Act are eligible to take a credit for contributions made to endowment funds held by the community foundations listed here. The individual income tax credit formerly available to taxpayers who made contributions to endowment funds held by certified community foundations is no longer available; it was repealed by 2011 PA 38.
Certified Community Foundations for Tax Year 2016
A taxpayer that makes a contribution to a certified community foundation may claim a credit against the MBT liability equal to 50 percent of the taxpayer’s contribution, $5,000.00, or 5 percent of the tax liability, whichever is less. This is a non-refundable credit. Listed below are the community foundations that have been certified by the Department of Treasury for tax year 2016. A number of the larger community foundations manage the funds of smaller community foundations. The smaller community foundations, known as geographic affiliate funds, are listed under the managing community foundation. Donations made to a geographic affiliate fund must be claimed by using the managing community foundation’s code on the appropriate tax form. No other applications for certification will be accepted for tax year 2016.
