Moved? Change Your Address with Employer, Banks Before Tax Time

Did you change addresses in 2021? If so, be sure to get your address changed with employers and financial institutions.

The Michigan Department of Treasury is reminding taxpayers to take care of address updates in advance of the 2022 income tax filing season to prevent delays in filing returns.

Deputy State Treasurer Glenn White said, “Please take a few moments out of your busy holiday schedule to make sure your address is updated with employers and financial institutions. When the individual income tax processing season opens at the beginning of next year, we will be ready to process your return.”

The Treasury encourages electronic filing over paper returns. Direct debit is available again for this tax filing season.

For those who had their identity compromised, it can be reported to the Treasury so that criminals do not attempt to steal tax refunds.

Michigan taxpayers get an average return of $634. Out of 5 million filers, 3.4 million get money back from the state.
