Time running out to claim 2014 state income tax refunds

Taxpayers who want to claim a state income tax refund from the 2014 tax year are running out of time, according to the Michigan Department of Treasury.

State law requires taxpayers to file a state income tax return and claim their refund within four years. This means individuals who have yet to file their 2014 state income tax return and claim their refund must do so before Monday, April 15, 2019.

"This is a taxpayer's last chance to claim their 2014 state income tax refund," said Deputy State Treasurer Glenn White, who oversees Treasury's Tax Administration programs. "Treasury wants to unite taxpayers with the dollars they are entitled to receive. Please don't miss the opportunity to claim your 2014 tax year refund."

Taxpayers must complete the required 2014 tax year forms to claim their 2014 state income tax refund. Using an incorrect form will cause processing delays.

Taxpayers who are missing W-2 and 1099 forms should contact current or previous employers.
