Tax Returns Must Be eFiled or Mailed by April 18, 2023
LANSING, Mich. -- The Michigan Department of Treasury (Treasury) is reminding taxpayers that state individual income tax returns are due in less than a month.
State individual income tax returns must be filed electronically or postmarked through the U.S. Postal Service by 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday, April 18.
?With the individual income tax deadline approaching in mid-April, there is still plenty of time left to file your tax return," said Deputy State Treasurer Glenn White, who oversees Treasury's Revenue Services programs. ?Consider e-filing to ensure an accurate return and timely refund.?
Choosing electronic filing and direct deposit is convenient, safe and secure. Last year, more than 4.8 million Michigan taxpayers e-filed, which is 89% of state income tax filers.

Printed tax forms are available at public libraries, post offices in northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula, Department of Health and Human Services county offices, and Treasury field offices.
For the benefit and convenience of taxpayers, both federal and state of Michigan individual income tax returns are due April 18, 2023.
City of Detroit individual income tax returns are due on April 18, 2023.
